"What?s unique about the Mobiado Grand 350 Pioneer is that its battery
cover is literally made out
of materials from the Gibeon meteorite, discovered in Namibia in 1836.
The meteorite is believed
to come from asteroid belts near Mars and Jupiter; its composition is
90% iron and 8%nickel,
plus small traces of phosphorus and cobalt."
