Local Motors will showcase the proprietary three-phased manufacturing process for 3D-printing cars during NAIAS 2015. Made from a carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic material by SABIC, the current model of the Strati takes approximately 44 hours to print 212 layers. Three-Phase Process: Print, Refine, Finish.

While 700 bar compressed hydrogen storage provides a near‐term commercialization pathway, the performance of this storage technology falls short of the DOE onboard FCEV hydrogen storage targets, particularly for volumetric hydrogen energy density and system cost. The workshop will be held on 29 October 2015, in Dallas, Texas.

The selected projects will focus on technologies such as revolutionizing fuel cells for light- and heavy-duty vehicles, and technologies to generate less nuclear waste and reduce the cost of fuel. Combined, the new materials and manufacturing methods are expected to improve torque density by 40-70% and reduce manufacturing costs.

Furthermore, the batteries in a PHEV are generally smaller than those in any other electric vehicle constructed today and the battery savings in the PHEV from a pure BEV can easily make up for the cost of the small liquid-fueled engine, resulting in a lower-cost production vehicle for mass distribution.
