A US startup company has demanded the invention of the world’s first ‘flying car’ or flying car. The company has recently conducted a successful test of flying over a California standing vehicle.
Alef Aeronautics, this company has released a video of their ‘Model Zero’ prototype, where it is seen that the car suddenly flies over a parked car after the road is on the road.
“This drive and flight test run in the real environment of the city, Jim Dukhovani, said,” This drive and flight test is an important proof of our technology. We hope that it will prove that the new type of transportation is really possible. ‘
Currently most flying car startup companies use quadcopter design like drones, where there are rotor blades on the outside of the vehicle. Again some cars use folding wings or folded wings, which require a large space for flying.
However, Alef’s model Zero car looks a lot like a normal car. Its rotor blades are hidden inside the chassis or structure of the car.
Alef says the electric car can move up to 120 km continuously on the road and is capable of flying up to 5 km by air.
Alef Aeronautics, founded in the 21st. The organization’s goal is to create a flying car in the future, which will ‘be available not only for the rich but also for the common people’.
In the meantime, the company has received more than 5,900 pre-order for their ‘Model A’ car. The production of this car will begin later this year.
To this end, they have already completed a production agreement with ‘Pukaara Aero’ and ‘MYC’ (MyC). This joint venture has previously developed the aviation-grade parts for companies like Airbus and Boeing.
The price of ‘Model A’ starts about US $ 1 million or about 2 lakh 5 thousand British pounds. However, the company will bring another flying car ‘Model Z’ to the market in the future, which will cost approximately $ 1,000.
Alef’s website states, “Can run like a street car, fly straight up if needed and fly over traffic – we are creating an effective solution to the problem of modern transport.”
The company also said, ‘The car can run regularly and follow all kinds of traffic rules. It can be kept effortlessly in a general parking place or garage. ‘
