Has anyone actually researched the possibility of making plastic from seaweed, or is this just more Toyota marketing fiction tarted up as “research”? I did a Google search and the only thing that came up was this engineer’s quote. I know that not finding it on the internet doesn’t necessarily mean it doesn’t exist, but you’d think there would be something online.

If they do make it.. I can only assume that you would have a WHALE of a time driving it..
I also expect that like the Corolla it would have Toyota’s safety SHELL.. another cool feature would have is SEA-GULL Wing doors

However; you would always be takin the car to Ultra TUNA for a wheel alignment as it would constantly be CRAB-bing

But nothing kan change the fact that it looks like CARP

Nothing new about this. Anyone remember the van made out of weed that Cheech and Chong drove accross the US/Mexico border? I’m probably showing my age…
