The purpose-built 35ft electric flying boat also offers a top speed of 22 knots.
How do you make an electric boat go faster and further on a single charge? Either you fit a more powerful battery that usually increases the weight, making it counterproductive, or use a hydrofoil system to reduce drag.
The SpiritBARTech35EF is a product of UK-based boat design… More.
Flying cars are becoming closer to reality than what sci-fi movies may lead you to believe. Another electric flying car “took flight” this week in the US. CEO Doron Merdinger of Miami-based Doroni Aerospace successfully piloted a two-seater personal vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft that fits in your garage.
Electric flying cars are all of a sudden taking the US by storm. Last month, California-based Alef Aeronautics revealed its 100% electric flying car, “Model A,” the first of its kind to receive legal approval to fly from the US government.
According to Alef, the Model A has a 200-mile driving range and can fly for 110 miles. The company says it had gathered over 440 orders for its $300K electric flying car within three months.
(NewsNation) — Flying cars are coming sooner than you think.
Companies are looking to turn a decades-old concept, reminiscent of “The Jetsons,” into reality in just a few short years. Morgan Stanley predicts “the urban air mobility market could be worth more than $1 trillion by 2040,” according to a report from Business Insider.
Start-ups all over the world are working to get their flying cars up and running.
Tesla, Inc. TSLA Cybertruck updates, especially from influencers and the company’s fanbase, have been coming in thick and fast. Future Fund Managing Partner Gary Black is an analyst who is upbeat about the prospects for the electric pickup truck.
What Happened: Cybertruck deliveries are likely to “far exceed” Wall Street estimates, said Black in a tweet. He noted that the current consensus delivery estimates for 2024 and 2025 are 91,000 units and 160,000 units, respectively.
Following the ramp-up, Tesla is planning for annual production of 375,000 units, the analyst said. The consensus estimates are at least 200,000 per year short, he added.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk claims the brand’s cars can swim for short periods of time, implying that owners can escape floods or drive past water crossings.
Jobs at high-risk of being replaced by AI include construction, transportation and farming, according to a new report.
Formula One (F1) has always been a technology-driven sport. Behind every car tearing up the circuit at 250 mph is a team of engineers and scientists competing to wrangle every advantage, leveraging the latest innovations in data, analytics and high-performance computing.
Right now, as is the case in every industry, artificial intelligence (AI) is driving a wave of disruption, transforming car design, race performance and fan experience alike.
As Christian Horner, CEO of Oracle Red Bull Racing, says, “Data is in the team’s lifeblood. Every element of performance – how we run a race, how we develop a car, how we select and analyze drivers – it’s all driven by data.”
Volkswagen’s autonomous driving program kicks off in Austin, Texas, this month with two all-electric ID. Buzz vehicles.
Elon Musk has again decided to share a timeline about Tesla’s self-driving effort – again claiming it will achieve “full self-driving” by the end of the year.
But this time, the CEO has mentioned “level 4 or 5” self-driving. However, it’s not clear if he knows what that means.
Over the years, Musk has claimed that Tesla was on the verge of achieving “full self-driving capability” so often that it is hard to believe him now.
O.o!!!!!
A UNIQUE flying car could pave the way for roads in the sky.
The US government approved an amazing flying car which could make Back to the Future-style highways a reality.
California company Alef Aeronautics claims their model A car not only can drive on roads, but also take off to avoid traffic jams.
