The 3D printed bike that gets to 60mph in four seconds

Italian Volt has created the Lacama – a customisable electric motorcycle made from 3D printed parts that can go from 0-62mph in 4.2 seconds, and can be charged in just 40 minutes.

The new bike, which is built with 3D printed bodywork and high-end performance parts, including Brembo brakes and Ohlins suspension has a top speed of 112mph, thanks to the 94bhp and 153lb-ft of torque on tap.

Thanks to the 3D printing technology, the 12 aluminium parts that make up the bike’s body can all be customised in terms of shape and colour, which gives riders the chance to really make the Lacama their own but then, at £35,000 you’d probably want something a bit bespoke...

Volt says that it has also been working hard to improve the charging efficiency of the bike – and as a consequence the bike comes equipped with a touchscreen display which allows you to monitor battery status.

Not only that, according to the bike builder it has a ‘fast charging’ process available that can produce an 80% charge in just 40 minutes. A full charge will take about three hours.
