3D printers are arguably the most innovative inventions in the past couple years, and while people have made moulds of their heads and miniature novelties, Local Motors in Chicago has printed a car.
It took the team only 44 hours to print the chassis, seats, door panels, and thousands of other components, which were assembled to create a working vehicle.
“A 3D printed car like ours will only have dozens of components,” Local Motors engineer James Earle told Business Insider.
“You can make a vehicle for yourself that’s basically a one-0ff, do the entire design. You could create custom-fit seats that conform to your shape, things like that, that you couldn’t do with cars now.”
Whilst it is a great idea to print your own car, we reckon until it has done all the safety tests and more, rather go for a MINI. They are Freekin AWESOME! Check out their deals here:
