BUGATTI Using 3d printing for the new Tourbillon?
So i just watched this 8 minute video Bugatti released last month and i found it very interesting, it seems like they use Metal 3d printing to make the back diffuser, they've designed a diffuser which has a honeycomb patter on the inside to absorb the energy of a crash.
They also mentioned something about a suspension part being 3d printed although im not sure how the suspension would benefit from metal 3d printing.
This just shows how important 3d printing is and honestly opens up crazy opportunities where other manufacturers could use similar methods to create cars that are safer for the public. One implementation could be Rally where the car NEEDS to sustain crazy amounts of force if the car hits something at extreme speeds.
What do you think about this? Is there a better way to do it or is metal 3d printing really the best option? what other use cases could Metal 3d printing have in the automotive industry?
Check out the video from Bugatti:
