Fly It is one of the aspirations that the human being has had. It is so important that the great Leonardo da Vinci He already flirted with the idea of inventing an object that would allow it. Therefore, it is not strange that from time to time "devices" arise that are aimed at this mission. Specifically, the automotive sector It is one of the most inclined, with the first project in the 20s of the last century.
Among the firms that have opted to create a flying vehicle are AIRCRAFT, Terrafugia and its own Toyota. To these is added, from now on another: NFT (Next Future Transportation). This company is a small startup with US-Israeli capital that has created a hybrid model, since it can circulate by land and air. Thus is born the ASKA eVTOL Concept Hybrid Flying Car.
ASKA Drive & Fly wants to revolutionize mobility with eVTOL
El ASKA eVTOL can take off and land on vertical, so you would not need Landing track to perform both operations. The only thing to keep in mind is to have the necessary space to spread its wings. When these are deployed, it has 10 fans, two at the rear and two at the ends of the wings. With them, he channels the air necessary to fly and move through the air.
However, the technical approach ASKA eVTOL Concept Hybrid Flying Car it is more ambitious. According to its creators, it is moved by an electric motor with extended range. Specifically, it has a battery pack fed by a gasoline engine that provide a range of 560 kilometers. Thanks to this propulsion system, it can accommodate up to 3 passengers in its cabin and has an autonomous navigation and ground control system.
According to its creators, Guy Kaplinsky and Maki Kaplinsky, the ASKA eVTOL It is for everyone, because it is not intended for rich people. Even so, its price will not be cheap, since it would be located in the range of 200 thousand dollars. Even so, the firm has confirmed that they are studying offering a monthly payment system for use. However, they have to improve this prototype a lot, because you do not have to be a lynx to see some gaps in the project. Time to time.
