ZEM (Zero Emission Mobility) is the world’s first electric car that absorbs carbon dioxide.
Built by a team of students from Eindhoven University, the ZEM is powered by a rechargeable battery that charges with solar panels on the roof. The best part? The more you drive, the more carbon dioxide gets absorbed! With emissions from driving cars having an impact equivalent to around 50% of global greenhouse gases, this could be revolutionary for our planet. Other benefits of the ZEM, include lower fuel costs, less time wasted at the pump, and a regenerative braking system.
However, the ZEM is not as powerful as traditional fossil fuel vehicles, with a maximum speed of only 37 mph and 22 KW.
