An aeronautical company in the US has released footage showing a concept version of its flying car performing a vertical take-off before flying over an SUV.
Jim Dukhovny, the CEO of Alef Aeronautics, told the BBC’s senior technology reporter Chris Vallance, that he had thousands of pre-orders and hoped to start production within 12 months.
For around $300,000 (£237,000) the company says buyers will get an electric flying car with a predicted airborne range of 110km (68 miles). But taking a friend for a spin may prove tricky – the cockpit only has enough room for one and a half people.
As Vallance points out, Alef Aeronautics are not the only ones trying to make flying cars take off with buyers, and there are huge technological and regulatory hurdles to overcome.
