Technically you can do so now. But you would need a metal 3D printer to build it (or make it out of plastic I guess). I remember reading something about a dude who bought a industrial 3D printer setup just so he could print out a Rolls Royce Phantom.

Printing the externals is doable today, though definitely expensive, simply from the volume of material needed, even if you can outsource or rent a big enough 3D printer (I'd probably print out of nylon powder or something similar)*.

With the exterior printed, just slap an electric motor somewhere and you're golden (after setting up the whole rest of the car, of course)

*Actually, i'd probably print a neat looking bike frame and maybe some protection, way less material needed
