"When we dissected a boxfish specimen," Fricke says, "we found an interesting heat-exchange mechanism close to the gill opening, apparently to cool down the blood temperature within the box of the boxfish." The engineers didn't use this exchange mechanism in the prototype, "but it's an important discovery for future applications, because the gill openings are very small compared to the cooling openings in cars, but still very effective.""It's exciting that Mercedes-Benz has used the boxfish, but understandable, because it expresses so well the design constraints of a car: rigid, low drag, and a big cross-section," says Bartol, who adds that the concept car is "a good example of how some of nature's solutions together with human ingenuity and creativity can help advance technology." There was one element of the boxfish's anatomy that really impressed DaimlerChrysler: a three-pointed star on each of its scale plates, which just so happens to resemble Mercedes' famous logo
