Researchers from both Scotland and Italy have announced a new type of 3D printed metamaterial that has the ability to transform the way vehicles absorb impact. The design has a unique twisting lattice structure and can adapt its response to…

3D printing has become an increasingly essential technology in the automotive industry, transforming how vehicles are designed, prototyped, and even produced. From lightweight components to complex, custom geometries, additive manufacturing enables carmakers to innovate faster and reduce waste while enhancing…

The use of additive manufacturing as a tool for developing and testing new products has become increasingly more popular within high-demand and well-established industrial sectors. Recently, much of this new testing has been used within the bicycle sector. More specifically,…

Czinger Vehicles recently broke records in California with its 3D printed hypercar known as the 21C. The car broke five lap records at some of the state’s most famous racetracks. The company dubbed the campaign “Gold Rush,” which saw the…

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have developed a new aluminum alloy, called RidgeAlloy, that could transform how recycled scrap is used in the automotive industry. By turning low-value post-consumer aluminum into structural materials, the innovation could reduce energy…

Ford has taken a major step forward in automotive performance with the launch of the 2025 Mustang GTD. The track-focused supercar, equipped with a supercharged 5.2L V8 and advanced carbon fiber bodywork, achieved a stunning 6:52.072 lap at Germany’s Nürburgring,…

3D printing in the automotive industry has long been celebrated for its role in prototyping. Designers are able to iterate quickly, engineers can test fit and form, and the industry can experiment without cutting steel. However, with Toyota Europe’s latest…

This is not a concept car that can drive itself from point A to point B, nor is it just a futuristic gadget. We are presenting a prototype autonomous vehicle designed to enhance agricultural research, developed by the startup Lemki…

At the end of last year, Supernova launched the Pulse Production Platform, based on Viscogels, a viscous material capable of producing parts with a molded-like finish. Recently, the company announced the release of four new materials, specifically designed for demanding…

In the automotive industry, manufacturers face many challenges, including long supply chains that are often affected by significant delays that jeopardize the entire production process. In a sector governed by speed and performance, these delays have serious consequences. This is…

Hypercars are often defined by their speed, styling, and scarcity. Czinger recently announced the unveiling of its 21C V MAX, showcasing how 3D printing can be just as central to a vehicle’s identity. The specific Liquid Silver finish is more…

Additive manufacturing can create parts with advanced materials that guarantee effective and cost-efficient solutions even in the most extreme environments, from the sky to space and the depths of the ocean. A prime example of this technological revolution is Velettrica,…
