“#Flying car completes first intercity test flight<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

Flying car\u00a0is a term that\u2019s thrown around a lot lately, but often app<\/a>lied to quadrocopters that aren\u2019t designed to be driven on the road.<\/p>\n

There are a few legitimate \u201croadable\u00a0aircraft\u201d out there, however, and one prototype has just completed its first intercity test flight.<\/p>\n

The Klein Vision AirCar is a Slovakian-designed two-passenger vehicle with four wheels, a pusher propeller, switchblade-style retractable wings and a telescoping tail that transforms into a road legal package on the ground in just three minutes.<\/p>\n

The vehicle has made 142 test flights and this week travel<\/a>ed between the international airport in Nitra to the international airport in Bratislava, where it converted into a car and was driven downtown.<\/p>\n

The AirCar is currently powered by a 160 hp\u00a0BMW\u00a0engine and has a top air speed of 118 mph, but will be upgraded to a 300 hp engine that will be capable of reaching 186 mph. It flew at a cruising altitude of 8,200 feet during the recent test.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis flight starts a new era of dual transportation vehicles. It opens a new category of transportation and returns the freedom originally attributed to cars back to the individual.\u201d Professor Stefan Klein after exiting the AirCar cockpit in Bratislava.<\/p>\n

Exact pricing for the customer version has not been announced, but the prototype cost a reported $2.3 million to develop.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
