Flying cars have always been the dream of mankind. We have seen a variety of flying cars in science fiction movies for countless times. Their flexible form can meet the land and air driving, bringing a more convenient commuting experience. So, how is the current research and development of the flying car and when will it be available? Take a look at the comprehensive news report about it.
Development progress of flying vehicles
To be sure, more than one company is developing a flying car project. Among them, Terrafugia, Aeromobil and other flying cars have entered the actual road test stage, but the latter version 3.0 in this year's test flight due to parachute failure unfortunately fell, but did not cause any casualties. In general, flying cars will not be available in a few years, but a decade or so is a time to look forward to.
Driving style and road problems
Terrafugia's TF-X flight car has two high-powered motors and a 296bhp petrol engine. It is powered by a hybrid electric hybrid and equipped with a propeller for vertical take-off and landing. However, it is expected that users will not be able to land completely freely, but will need to land in the airport. It will take some time for the "flight car parking lot" to appear. It is necessary for the state and the government to issue corresponding regulations and plan for the city's airspace.
Flying cars can be driven on the road, because both Terrafugia and Aeromobil products use a folding wing design, and when the wing is retracted, it is just a slightly exaggerated car. In addition, some models will also have automatic driving ability, which is also in line with the current trend of self-driving cars.
Is it safe?
Obviously, safety is the biggest concern for people flying cars. Flying cars are somewhat similar to airplanes and need to be connected to the ground air control tower to avoid air collisions. Terrafugia's TF-X flying vehicles also have advanced safety features such as avoiding other flying objects in the air and warning of bad weather. In addition, flying cars basically have a parachute design to prevent accidents when landing. But as mentioned above, the government needs detailed planning and control of low-altitude airspace in the city to ensure the safe flight of flying cars. This is a huge project.
Estimated time to market and price
At present, the specific time to market given by the flying car manufacturers is basically around ten years, and the price is at least 2 million yuan, which is obviously not acceptable to ordinary consumers. But what is certain is that in the case of increasingly crowded urban roads, it is clear that there is room for development in the use of low-capacity flying vehicles in the city, and the future is expected.
