Alef Aeronautics has unveiled a groundbreaking flying car that can operate on roads and take off vertically to bypass traffic. This week, the vehicle was successfully tested in an urban setting, showcasing its ability to drive a few meters before taking off. CEO Jim Dukhovny highlighted this as a significant advancement in transportation technology, likening it to the historic Wright Brothers' flights. The 17ft long car is designed to fit into standard parking spaces and features propellors for flight, aiming for a future that redefines urban mobility.
This drive and flight test represents an important proof of technology in a real-world city environment, proving to humanity that new transportation is possible.
While previous videos exist of cars driving and using a runway to take off, this is the first publicly released video of a car driving and taking off vertically.
