When Mercedes wanted to promote its new fuel cell vehicle, instead of placing it squarely in front of everyone in the world, the company decided to make the car invisible. We have video.



In this clever publicity stunt, Mercedes wanted to emphasize that its F-Cell vehicle has no omissions, making it virtually invisible to the environment. If you take a look at the gallery below, you’ll see how these clever dudes did it: by placing a mat of LEDs across one side of the vehicle and mounting a video-shooting Canon 5D Mark II digital SLR camera on the other side.

Let's see, the equipment only covers half the car, it adds nearly a ton to the thing, and costs... how much?



Don't delay, call now, operators are standing by.....

Too much, but it looks interesting.

I don't think they'd be allowed to drive it around if it covered much more.
