Vittori announced a production partnership with Totum 3D and ShapeUp Studios to design, prototype, and manufacture titanium 3D‑printed components for its three‑phase roadmap: hypercars first, followed by premium eVTOL and electric‑jet programs.

"As others explore aerospace concepts, we're putting titanium parts into production now," said Carlos Cruz, founder of Vittori. "Proving hardware on the road first lowers risk and speeds our move to the air. The same printed structures and thermal systems will migrate into our eVTOL and, later, our electric jet.""Vittori's road‑to‑air plan is a strong fit for metal additive," said Stefano Turconi, Head of Totum 3D. "Common, lightweight architectures reduce part count and lead time while meeting demanding performance targets."

Industry context: public reports note leaders like Christian von Koenigsegg examining aviation concepts. Vittori's approach focuses on production today with third‑party manufacturing and a clear transfer path from road to air.

Vittori's AI-hybrid hypercar, the Vittori Turbio—featuring a V12 targeting about 1,100 horsepower and 3D-printed titanium components—is scheduled for unveiling on October 4 in collaboration with Pininfarina. Further design details will be shared at the live event. This announcement comes as Vittori advances its current fundraising round to accelerate prototype production and support its three-phase roadmap from road to air.
