AeroMobil, the flying car, has been in development for five years, and its third-generation prototype was also shown last year. In the recent SXSW, the company revealed more details, the flying car may be realized in 2017, and even achieve "no flight." Although traffic is now well developed, traffic jams and short-haul flights are too time-consuming (flight hours may be only half an hour, but preparations before and after the flight may take hours) are not enough to solve people's travel needs. AeroMobil CEO Juraj Vaculik believes that flying cars can solve these problems and change traffic from 2D to 3D.
Of course, flying cars are becoming more popular, and they face technical, financial and regulatory obstacles. In addition, because AeroMobil's cars are not direct flights, additional road construction is required.
First of all, in car development, AeroMobil is still worried about finding the right parts, because the car needs to be light enough to fly, and also strong enough to cope with emergency collisions. Vaculik expects these problems to be resolved within two years, but the light and sturdy materials are not cheap, and Vaculik also expects the initial consumer version to be at least hundreds of thousands of euros. As for funding and regulation, Vaculik said the company received support from the European Union. The European Union will allow flying cars to operate and will allocate a portion of the money to help with research and development.
It is worth mentioning that Vaculik revealed that the flying car will be able to lift and lower on the grass, so the length of the runway is only about 200 meters long.
In terms of marketing strategy, AeroMobil will also learn from Tesla, initially developing a limited-edition sports car for high-end players to establish a brand image. This model can take two people and will be integrated into the existing aircraft frame with the type of light sport aircraft. Of course, the driver also needs a special driver's license. It will also be equipped with Garmin avionics, a two-channel autopilot, and a mileage of 430 miles.
As for the popular version of the flying car, it will be a hybrid, with 4 seats, and the mileage is twice that of the running model. Most importantly, it enables full autonomous driving. However, this model will not be realized in the short term, and even Vaculik himself believes that this is not planned. In the face of flying cars, autonomous driving seems to be indispensable, because ordinary people may not be able to adapt, but if you are flying the aircraft without driver operation, it seems a little scary. This problem also needs to be solved by AeroMobil.
