ON LAND AND IN THE AIR: ONE VEHICLE, TWO MODES
AirCar can travel both on the ground and in the sky with its four wheels and two foldable wings. The vehicle opens its wings in just 2 minutes before takeoff and transforms back into a car by folding its wings upon reaching its destination.
SPEED, ALTITUDE, AND POWER: PERFORMANCE DETAILS
Running on regular fuel, AirCar can reach an altitude of 5,500 meters and achieve a cruising speed of 250 kilometers per hour. The vehicle offers three different engine options with 280, 320, and 340 horsepower, and its takeoff distance on the runway is approximately 300 meters.
PRICE TAG: STARTING FROM 800 THOUSAND DOLLARS
The starting price of AirCar will be 800 thousand dollars. However, depending on the engine power and equipment, the price could rise to 1 million dollars.
SAFETY TESTS SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED
AirCar has successfully completed over 500 takeoffs and landings and has conducted more than 170 hours of test flights in total. Following these successes, the company also received the "Certificate of Airworthiness."
AIRCAR 2 AND THE ELECTRIC FUTURE PLAN
The first flight of the new prototype AirCar 2 is planned for September 2025. The company's co-founder Anton Zajac announced that a fully electric version will also come with the advancement of battery technologies.
GLOBAL RACE HAS BEGUN: FLYING TAXIS ON THE WAY
