The soybean car was a concept car built with agricultural plastic. The New York Times in 1941 states the car body and fenders were made from a strong material derived from soy beans, wheat and corn. One article claims that they were made from a chemical formula that, among many other ingredients, included soy beans, wheat, hemp, flax and ramie; while the man who was instrumental in creating the car, Lowell E. Overly, claims it was "…soybean fiber in a phenolic resin with formaldehyde used in the impregnation" (Davis, 51). The body was lighter and therefore more fuel efficient than a normal metal body. It was made in Dearborn, Michigan and was introduced to public view on August 13, 1941. It was made, in part, as a hedge against the rationing of steel during World War II. It was designed to

(de) La Hemp Body Car o Soybean Car (máquina con la estructura de cáñamo o máquina de soja) es un prototipo de automóvil diseñado por Henry Ford y completado en 1941. Su peculiaridad era de ser enteramente realizada con un material plástico obtenido a partir de habas de soja y cáñamo, y alimentado por etanol de cáñamo (el combustible se refinó a partir de las semillas de la planta). Fue el primer vehículo construido enteramente en , más ligero pero más fuerte que el normal cuerpo metálico. (es) La Hemp Body Car ou Soybean Car (voiture avec la structure de chanvre ou voiture de soja) est un prototype de voiture conçu par Henry Ford entièrement réalisé en un matériau plastique obtenu à partir des graines de soja et de chanvre, et alimenté par de l'éthanol de chanvre (le carburant était affiné à partir des graines de la plante). C'était la première voiture construite entièrement en , plus léger mais aussi plus résistant que la carrosserie normale. (fr) La Hemp Body Car (in inglese «auto di canapa») o Ford Cannabis fu un prototipo di automobile progettato da Henry Ford e ultimato nel 1937. La sua peculiarità era di essere interamente realizzata con un materiale plastico ottenuto dai semi di soia e di canapa, e alimentata da etanolo di canapa (il carburante veniva raffinato dai semi della pianta). È stata la prima vettura costruita interamente in plastica di canapa, più leggera ma anche più resistente delle normali carrozzerie in metallo. Lo stesso Henry Ford per dimostrare ai giornalisti e al pubblico l'elasticità e la resistenza del nuovo tipo di carrozzeria, si fece filmare mentre colpiva violentemente con una mazza il retro della vettura, senza che questa neppure si ammaccasse.

(pt) Конопляний автомобіль ("Hemp body car") або соєвий автомобіль (Soybean car) (a.k.a. "Hemp body car") був першим прототипом автомобіля, корпус якого був повністю зроблений із пластику, який створювався із конопель (Cannabis sativa) та соєвих бобів. Такий корпус був легший, однак більш витривалий при пошкодженнях, ніж звичайний металевий корпус. Як пальне машина використовувала етанол, який отримувався із кукурудзи. Автомобіль розробила компанія Генрі Форда у місті Дірборн штату Мічиган (Dearborn, Michigan), який був представлений широкому загалу 13 серпня, 1941 року.
