The Blade supercar made by Divergent 3D has been a well-known concept since earlier this year, mostly because of the company’s open approach when it comes to revealing details about the vehicle. The 3D-printed speedster was recently showcased during the LA Auto Show with a new chassis and the same sustainable approach in creating vehicles. Capable of reaching 60mph in 2.2 seconds, the Blade is a supercar in every way.
Even though 3D-printing is a relatively new technology in terms of widespread adoption, its uses have been proven to be large and varied. Practically any kind of object can be created using different types of materials. In the case of the Blade, it is made up of materials that combine both aluminum and carbon fiber, Futurism reports.
The vehicle weighs 1,400 pounds and sports a 3.0L V8 engine that can spit out 700hp. The engine is 3D-printed as well, which makes practically every part of the vehicle a result of sustainable manufacturing practices.
Looking at the photos of the vehicle in Divergent 3D’s main site, the Blade looks practically no different from all the other supercars that are out in the market. This is one of the greatest strengths of the prototype since auto enthusiasts can be incredibly picky when it comes to the vehicles they drive. If it doesn’t look gorgeous, good intentions and a worthy cause won’t be enough to convince too many affluent customers to spend money.
In any case, GTSpirit reports that the company is actually thinking about manufacturing only 200 units of the Blade. Since it occupies a rather elite niche, its price range will also be rather high, so it’s definitely aimed at customers who have the money and also care about sustainable practices.
Divergent 3D is actually hoping to leverage the demand for more environmentally friendly manufacturing technology to sell their 3D-printing brand. By having parts printed instead of going through several processes in order to be usable, 3D-printing is expected to change the landscape of manufacturing once adopted globally.
