One of the more interesting aspects of automotive production and design over the past decade is additive manufacturing. While most of what we hear about the process involves traditional 3D printing, it's a far more complex and nuanced part of the design and manufacturing process. This month we explore how companies like GM, Stratasys, and DuPont are developing and using additive manufacturing.

This month, Hyundai, Bosch, and Voltaiq talk with the Automotive Engineering crew about the Hyundai Metaplant, battery manufacturing, and creating better batteries through software.

In addition to sharing information about their latest technologies, the guests also share information on entering their respective fields and the excitement that the transition to electrification has created.

The past few months have been chaotic for the electric vehicle transition. The federal tax credits are set to end, and tariffs seem to change from week to week. For this month's episode, we wanted to know what's the state of EVs directly from the mouths of companies building and moving forward with EV roadmaps. We talked to BMW about its new iX3 while at IAA in Munich, Germany, and Slate Motors after visiting the automotive startup's factory in Indiana.
