It may not look like it, but this new supercar is nearly entirely 3D printed. That's right, the chassis parts of the Blade Supercar, manufactured by automaker Divergent 3D, was printed out of composite materials and put together by hand. Divergent 3D CEO Kevin Czinger was on site as his company presented their Blade Supercar at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Wednesday. Oh, did we mention that the Blade is federally approved for highway travel? Powered by a 700 hp, 4-cylinder turbocharged internal combustion engine, the Blade can go from 0 to 60mph in 2.5 seconds

Inondations : Nîmes sauvée des eaux
The 'Devel Sixteen' supercar was unveiled at the 2017 Dubai Motor Show on Tuesday. It's 81mm Quad Turbo 12.3 Litre V16 engine generates a jaw-dropping 5007 Horsepower and 3757 lb-ft of torque and the body is made of super-light carbon fiber. Dubai-based startup manufacturer unveiled the vehicle at the 14th annual Dubai Motor Show.
This is the Vulcano Titanium, the world's first and only titanium supercar. It was unveiled at the Dubai Motor Show on Tuesday and comes with a staggering price tag of $2.5 million. The Vulcano Titanium is handmade by Italian carmaker Icona and inspired by the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird aircraft. A supercharged V8 engine capable of being tuned to over 1000 horsepower can power the Vulcano from 0-60 in just 2.8 seconds.
Italdesign and Airbus unveiled the 'Pop.Up', the world's first fully electric, zero emission, drone-carried vehicle, at the Geneva International Motor Show on Tuesday. The 'flying car' was designed to help relieve traffic congestion in cities by simply flying out of traffic. The car's driver sits in a frame that is fitted within an autonomous car. When traffic builds up, the driver has the opportunity to escape through calling a drone on their iPhone to wherever they are sitting. The drone then lifts the capsule into the air, and carries it and the driver off to unpolluted freedom. Of course, flying cars present many problems with air traffic control and safety, so the technology is not quite ready for mass adoption, but the concept is exciting. How you you like to simply fly up and over traffic in Airbus' Pop.Up drone lifted car?
