Cars have colonized the world and have positioned themselves as one of the preferred means of transportation for people, who say they feel more comfortable in a private vehicle, rather than in a collective one.
The popularity of cars has generated a strong demand for these vehicles, but it has also caused traffic to increase in large cities, becoming a severe social and environmental problem, since, up to now, there are more cars that follow occupying fossil fuels for their march, those that are electric; emitting a large amount of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
As the population and the number of vehicles have increased, new road problems arise and, therefore, new challenges for companies, who try to give possible solutions to them and, apparently, a company has just generated a prototype of a futuristic car which will surely make us transport ourselves to movies like back to the future or well, remember our childhood with cartoons like ultrasonics.
This new invention will surely make you remember one of the highest grossing and important big screen installments of all time. Marty MacFly and Doc Emmett Brown will celebrate their 38th anniversary this July 4th since they first arrived in movie theaters around the world and, although the saga of time travel continues to surprise many, the truth is that this film is a clear example of how reality is always stranger than fiction.
Although a person in the 80’s never imagined traveling in a flying car, thanks to an American company, this could become a reality. A flying car prototype got the certificate of airworthiness of the Federal Aviation Administration. The car is manufactured by the California company Alef Automotive is the first fully electric flying vehicle that can drive on public roads and park like a normal car.
In addition, this car will be able to take off and land vertically and the space is intended for a maximum of 2 passengers and will have a range of 300 km on the road and 110 km in flight. This vehicle is estimated to have an acquisition cost of 300 thousand dollars and the first delivery It will be ready by the end of 2025.
The Federal Aviation Administration confirmed that it issued the special certificate of airworthiness that allows limited purposes such as exhibition, research and development. He Alef “Model A” is, to this day, the first and only flying car that has been allowed to be used in the United States, it has among its many features, vertical takeoff and landing capabilities. This, according to its developers, allows for adequate driving and parking according to the urban infrastructure and without a doubt, it is a promising prototype that could well be a solution for road traffic in the future.
