Airbus to reveal flying car prototype later this year

You may have just the title and got stuck for a moment there. Yes, we are a car based website, and yes we are talking about a flying car. Just to clarify, it is not April fools, it’s going to happen sooner rather than later. Goodbye stationary traffic, hello clear skies.

We’ve all dreamt at one point in our lives when this day will come and yes we’ve had flying car prototypes over the years, but Airbus’s take seems promising, to say the least.

The aviation brand has set up a new division within itself known as ‘Urban Air Mobility’ which is currently preparing the prototype that is destined to one-day transport occupants across cities in a matter of minutes instead of hours.

With hints of helicopter added to the mix, eventually, Airbus want their flying car to be fully capable of flying around without the need of a human pilot or autonomously while carrying one or more passengers at any given time.

As of now, the brand is working on developing a system for the automated machines to avoid collisions while up in the air. On top of that, they are also looking into the possibility of consumers being able to book their vehicle similar to the likes of Careem and Uber via mobile devices.

We may not have any flying cars, but we do have a fine selection of 918 Spyders, LaFerrai’s, P1’s and others that will give you the feeling of flying for sale in Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman and Abu Dhabi.
