Green and a half

Not only is a new Canadian car electric, but it also has a plant-based body:

The four-seat car, called the Kestrel, has an outer shell of a hemp-based composite, which developers say is lighter than glass fibre and more resilient than steel.

Top speed of 56 mph and a 100-miles range on a single charge. Excellent for many situations. I enjoy watching kestrels on utility wires alongside the road. In a few years I’ll see them on the road.
