Shownotes Transcript

Local Motors engineers and designers are working around the clock to develop a 3D-printed car that exceeds FMVSS standards by 2017. There is nothing conventional about this car, the way it's made, or the company behind it. They have partnered with industry leading IoT companies to create a truly unique car ownership experience. From the retail lobby, to the factory floor, to the open road, they're making everything simpler and smarter. Sustainable vehicle development utilizing DDM manufacturing techniques, at small-footprint Micro factories, separates Local Motors from the competition. Matthew Gunson, Consumer Insights Manager at Local Motors talked in detail about this extremely interesting technology, including Ollie, a revolutionary new, 3D printed transport vehicle that can carry 11 passengers and solves many transportation problems. This is a must listen for all 3D printing and car enthusiasts. Subscribe, Listen and Rate this podcast.
