Lexus going sugarcane green

Toyota's Lexus CT200h small luxury hybrid will be the first car outfitted with a sugarcane-based product called bio-PET, also referred to as Ecological Plastic.  The product's initial use will be in the luggage compartment liner.  However, the material may also be used in the manufacture of other interior plastic-based parts of the car, including seats and carpet.  Check out the the story at crispgreen.com.

That's so cool! Hopefully they'll make more use of it in the future...
