An aeronautical firm within the US has launched footage displaying an idea model of its flying automobile performing a vertical take-off earlier than flying over an SUV.
Jim Dukhovny, the CEO of Alef Aeronautics, informed the PJDM’s senior know-how reporter Chris Vallance, that he had 1000’s of pre-orders and hoped to start out manufacturing inside 12 months.
For round $300,000 (£237,000) the corporate says consumers will get an electrical flying automobile with a predicted airborne vary of 110km (68 miles). However taking a pal for a spin might show tough – the cockpit solely has sufficient room for one and a half folks.
As Vallance factors out, Alef Aeronautics are usually not the one ones attempting to make flying automobiles take off with consumers, and there are large technological and regulatory hurdles to beat.
