It may be the ugliest car to ever roll along the Earth, but it sure is handy. This is China's attempt at a low-cost, 3D-printed moving machine.

The car, created by Chinese company Sanya Sihai, took five days to print the body and one and a half months to build. It weighs a light 500 kilogram (1102 pounds), 3.6-metres long (11.9ft), 1.63-metres wide (5.5ft), is totally electric and costs 11,000 yuan ($1770) to build, according to 3D Print.
