This Avatar-inspired Mercedes-Benz is one of the most futuristic cars we’ve ever seen

As cinema-goers around the world await the arrival of James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water, passers-by and commuters in El Segundo, California had to the opportunity to see a futuristic concept car inspired by the film.

The Mercedez-Benz Vision AVTR was first unveiled in 2020 and was reportedly inspired by the original Avatar movie and looks as futuristic as they come. With light-accented tires, side-impact door beams and gill-like flaps on the car’s exterior, the vehicle really does look like something from Pandora.

The vehicle truly is a reflection of Avatar: The Way Of Water’s grandeur, with the film having to be the fourth or fifth biggest box office hit of all time to just break even.

In a recent interview, James Cameron himself failed to shed light on the film’s financial standing, but went as far as saying that it was “very f****** expensive” – coming from a director who helmed projects like Titanic, and Terminator, that’s saying something.
