Canadian engineers are on the verge of creating a car with more than 60 percent of parts made on a 3D printer. They tried to make the vehicle as small as possible, and as low to the ground as they could, for an aerodynamic advantage. Its electric powertrain can be recharged in about six hours from a regular wall socket, which means there's no investment in a proprietary charging station or rewiring higher-voltage hookups in the garage. Jim Kor, featured in the video, says that the version he's sitting in is a "crude" prototype, but is leading them in the right direction.
