3d printing technology is the next big thing

To prove it, here is the first 3d printed car. Currently you can get 3D-printed body parts, 3D-printed airplane parts, 3D-printed pizza Now revolutionary technology is set to take over the roads with the first 3D-printed supercar.

This car is called the Blade, This wondrous piece of engineering is called the “Blade,” and it was developed by a San Francisco-based startup called Divergent. The Blade goes from 0 to 60 mph in 2.2 seconds, thanks to a 700-horsepower bi-fuel engine that uses compressed natural gas or gasoline.

The Blade weighs only 600 kilos due to the fact that it is made of carbon fiber and not steel or aluminum. “With this approach we can build a very strong and very light chassis, and do so while saving energy and generating less pollution,” Divergent said. The company plans to produce only a limited number of these spectacular vehicles to start, but hopes to franchise their technology out to smaller manufacturers to create their own 3D-printed vehicles.
