In 2008 Mercedes-Benz assigned 150 apprentices the task of
designing and building a concept car with a mandate to include references to
the company’s history and the latest technology. The result, introduced to the
public in April 2009, was the F-Cell Roadster. It pays homage to the first
gasoline powered, purpose-designed car, the Benz Patented Motorwagen of 1886
with its exposed power plant, spoke wheels, leather and wood. There are also echoes
of Formula One cars in the body shape and the front suspension. The vehicle is
powered by a 1.2 kW hydrogen fuel cell and has a top
speed of 25 kph and an operating range of 350 km. A joy-stick controls the steer-by-wire
system.
This model was built in Blender 2.8 and rendered with
Cycles. It’s the second time I’ve modeled
