US company Alef Aeronautics has released videos of its Alef Model Zero electric flying car driving on a road in California before vertically taking off into flight.
Designed for a future where cars can fly over traffic to solve congestion issues, the prototype completed a test flight in San Mateo on Wednesday this week, hovering over a stationary vehicle on a road.
According to Alef Aeronautics, it is the “first test in history of a car drive and vertical takeoff in a city”.
