A £236k flying car has demonstrated its ability to soar over traffic in a world first.
Californian firm Alef Aeronautics claims to have conducted the first-ever test of a car driving and then vertically taking off in a city.
The ultralight version of their Alef Model Zero flew over a vehicle in a controlled environment to simulate an emergency traffic situation.
CEO Jim Dukhovny compared the test to the Wright Brothers’ Kitty Hawk moment, calling it proof of new transportation possibilities.
Alef reports 3,330 pre-orders for the electric flying car, which has a 200-mile road range and 110-mile flight capability.
