Why Car Companies Still Spend Thousands On Clay Models | Cars Insider
Since the 1930s, every car has started as a full-size clay model before being manufactured. However, these models can cost automakers hundreds of thousands of dollars. We explore why in 2022 clay modeling is still a crucial step in the design process.

"We support human Work life balance"
REPENT AND FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST BEFORE ITS TOO LATE ,
How do the human sculptors hope to achieve perfect symmetry on both sides like that… they could just 3D print for under $1k
You need to see a physical representation of what you are building is why. They still build models of building schemes too.
Who else thought it was a car made of cheese when they saw the thumbnail?β¦. Just me? π€£
On average, a small car costs ~200m to design from the ground up, so a couple grand isn’t really anything by comparison
Matthew 6:19-21 NKJV
"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; [20] but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. [21] For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also…
Which leaves me with the question of why most cars are still so hideousβ¦
when working with 3d software everything on the monitor always looks super cool, that’s the problem. I remember 20 years ago a marble fountain that I had personally designed and made to cnc how horrible it was, I couldn’t even believe that I had created such an abomination π°
Rumor has it Toyota is starting to manufacture 1992supras again
Cause we live the physical world not in a computer
A car also has a distinct feel which we can’t get virtually.
Why GOD made first human from clay model?
They do this with HIMARS, but instead of clay they use wood to keep costs down. Russians have wasted thousands destroying wooden decoys.
"For example"
Most impressively, is why with all that, cars are still boring looking as walls
unbelievable VR controls…

WOW
3D printers!!!
So you’re telling me computers don’t know everything???? Wow interesting βοΈ
These m************ will spend thousands of dollars on lunch for the corporate brass
I don’t know why…cars have all looked the same the past 20 years. Just like cellphones. They make micro alterations and act like it’s the newest latest and greatest.
Use a 3d printer!!!!
Cheese car
Just 3d print it
When it comes to music…. This is why we "mix into a Rough Master" ….. This comment will go over 99% of people’s heads…. Most will never know what I mean … Much love to all the audio engineers π€
This is Art !
Well why dont we get to drive clay models?
They should be made out of freeze dried foam with properly applied resonators. Thermoplastic urethanes have came a long way nowadays we need to learn how to utilize them perspectively. I feel like I’m still living in the Jurassic period
The price of 1 fender stamping die costs way more then a clay car so if it saves you from reworking it that’s most well spent.
Idk giant 3d printer
Realistically clay should be replaced with 3d printing within the next ten years. Better structural properties, helps the environment by repurposing our waste and gives the designers a way of having a fully finished car with internals also 3d printed – even engine, clutches and pipes can be recreated using a 3d printer so you can’t get anymore truer then that unless you manufacturer your first test model.
To think of all the time, effort and money that went into designing modern BMWs π
Donβt really know how it costs thousands of dollars to shoot some air down a tunnel but okay lol
3D printing is like: Good question.
Have they ever heard of large volume 3d printing?
I always wanted to be a car designer, ever since I was a kid. I found out that it’s easier to get into the NBA, than it is to become a car designer. Years ago I read in a car magazine that the Pininfarina Mythos was so complex and complicated (in 89′) that the Italian designers completely abandoned their computers and just sculpted it by hand. I would love to do this job for a living. Thanks.
I don’t why humans are so obsessed with machine in sculpting they are using cnc machine.
I went to CCS in Detroit who turns out a lot of top automotive designers and got to see this process first hand. My degree was In graphic design. Boy did I make a mistake lol
Even the Nissan Almera G15 was designed with a full scale mockup?

Great content. Well investigated, concise, loaded with accuracy. Love this
All scared of loosing job !!! Simple !! U dumbo πππππ
Idk if I’m weird, but I would pay good money to destroy that thing after they were done with it.
How in the world anyone has enough patience for this job is a mystery to me.
I would last an hour
And anyone can easily see the difference between cars made on a PC and a car made by an artist and his hands… This explains whe the cars of 20s,30s and later are so beautiful – every line was born with the warm and skilled hands
Is that⦠cheese?
With all that – the cars are still crap π© and piss poorly constructed!
