 Hey, it's Chris from The Verge, and I'm standing in front of the local motors Strati. Now, this is a 3D printed car. Almost everything you see here comes out of a machine that extrudes plastic. There are a few components that they add on at the end, but by and large, this thing comes out of a plastic tube. And they're actually building one right here at the Detroit Auto Show. This model is a prototype, basically. These things aren't on the streets yet, and they're not going to be available for purchase for another 12 to 18 months. They're going to come out of what they call a micro factory, which is a little tiny space where they have the 3D printer in Washington, D.C., or just outside Washington, D.C. So there's a sort of prototype drive train here. It only gets 40 to 60 miles on a charge. That's going to change by the time it ships. The batteries are back here behind the driver and passenger. Comfortably seats, too. It wasn't any problem to get in or out. It kind of looks weird to get in and out, but it actually isn't bad at all. Driving around in this feels surprisingly like a regular car. Granted, it's very low to the ground and relatively small, and the windshield, as you can tell, is a little bit low. So it's kind of more of a go-kart, but a very comfortable go-kart. It's quiet. It's all electric. I don't know if I'd want to take it out on the street, but if you did and you got into a fender bender, just 3D print yourself a new part.
