Top 8 New Flying Cars and Air Taxis - Best Personal Aircraft ▶️ 3
Ғылым және технология
Flying cars or air taxis and their business opportunities have recently become a hot topic. In this video, we are going to talk about the new air taxis (flying cars) which were unveiled (from 2019 to 2020). These best personal aircraft include SkyDrive SD-03, Bell Nexus 4EX, CityAirbus, Lift Hexa, Boeing PAV, Seraph, and Heaviside.
SkyDrive SD-03
SkyDrive SD-03 is a Toyota-backed flying car that is billed as the smallest electric VTOL. Equipped with eight rotors that help it fly safely even if there’s a motor failure, this one-seat SkyDrive model can fly for only five to ten minutes at a low speed of several miles per hour. The next version is expected to have a speed of up to 40 mph (60 kph) and an extended flight duration of 30 minutes. The company is currently waiting for approval for flights beyond the test field by the end of 2020, and it expects a two-seat commercial vehicle by 2023.
Lift Hexa
Hexa is an all-electric single-passenger air taxi aimed primarily at tourism and short-distance air travel. With a total empty weight of 432 pounds (196kg), HEXA can carry a 250 lb (113kg) passenger for up to 15 minutes of flight time. LIFT Aircraft is one of fifteen companies which are members of Agility Prime, the United States Air Force initiative to accelerate the commercial market for advanced air mobility vehicles.
Bell Nexus 4EX
Bell Nexus 4EX is a 7,000-pound (3.2 tonnes) air taxi that can hit speeds of up to 150mph (241kmh) and can travel up to 60 miles (97km) while carrying 4 to 5 passengers, plus a pilot.
Boeing PAV
Boeing PAV is a new-generation eVTOL passenger aircraft, or air-taxi designed and developed by Boeing for safe on-demand urban air transportation. Not much is provided about speed and payload weight, but the company says it designed for urban commutes with typical ranges up to 50 miles (80km).
Seraph
Seraph is a 12-rotor British electric flying taxi that can carry passengers and goods weighing up to 550 pounds (250 kilograms) at speeds up to 50 mph (80kmh). The Seraph was built by the company to test new technologies and systems which will be used in the upcoming passenger model, the VA-X1.
ELROY
ELROY is a flying car that is slightly larger than a compact car, but unexpectedly quiet and can fit into most garage spaces. With its high-performance electric motors, this electric-powered vertical take-off and landing vehicle can carry 2 passengers and travel at speeds up to 44mph (70km/h) with a flight time of 20 to 25 minutes.
CityAirbus
CityAirbus is is a fully electric 4850 pounds (2.2-tonne) air taxi manufactured by AirBus. The CityAirbus is autonomously piloted eVTOL and has a cruising speed of roughly 75 mph (120kmh) up to 15 minutes of flight time. Powered by four 140 kW batteries, its 4 sets of counter-rotating ducted propellers can each provide 881 pounds (400 kg) of thrust for a payload of up to 551 pounds (250 kg). The CityAirbus is the successor of Vahana the company’s first air taxi model.
Heaviside
Heaviside is a high-performance electric VTOL vehicle by Kitty Hawk. Kitty Hawk claims the craft’s electric propulsion system, tiny proportions, and aerodynamic shape make it “roughly 100 times quieter than a regular helicopter and it can cover 55 miles (88 kilometers) distance in 15 minutes while using less than half the energy of a car.”

Es muy bonito todo eso pero, no creo que a la gente le guste que un vehículo como ese ande volando en los techos de las casas, creo que lo mejor es que se utilicen las mismas vías de los automóviles y hay mismo pueden hacerlo de dos o tres hasta cuatro niveles de circulación vehicular aéreo.
Awesome, thank you for sharing this video, I just hope this things(innovations) will come-out in the market sooner.
Extremely interesting. As a follower of aviation over the last half century I was amazed to find out that there so many of these electrically driven air vehicle under development. Thank you for providing this information, about I have found no other source, Brillaint!
This video is the best of these I've seen so far. Great concepts.
Beautiful inventions, getting addicted to them ✌.. i loved the Toyota Skydrive
Beautiful Video.....Informative And Novel.....Sure I can see the Commute Of The Future.....HERE AND NOW !!!!
the kitty hawk Heaviside design looks the best to me. I like how they use all motors and propellers for lift off and for forward flight, no wasted weight of motors and props for one or the other. I also like the over all aerodynamic design and very simple body structure. If I could invest in one of the projects and or buy one it would probably be that one.
Tak for gode videos. Fantastiske og favre nye verden. Så utrolig spændende, jeg var næsten selv helt oppe i skyerne da jeg så disse videos. Tak for at sende dem.
u forgot ehang, the only one thats actually commercializing it

You know the problem with them is for over 10 or 12 years they’ve never gotten beyond concept… Every vehicle in this video will never make it basically it’s all pie in the sky- e hang Is nothing but a pie in the sky company they’ve yet to produce something that does what they’ve been talking about longer than any other company ever in history who has been stuck in the concept phase for so ridiculously long
Thanks for this excellent peek at the near future for those of us who've wanted flying cars for...ever :-) My first thought watching these was what about bird-strikes? A flock of pretty much anything might wipe out a lot of those small rotors.....
yes, these type of vehicles are a must
I hope so!! Would love to get with a company testing these.
Beautiful machines! I helped build, test, fly, and train in ultralights during the craze in 1980's. I have also flown radio controlled models and drones since the 60's. But with the recent restrictions on low flying aircraft, and overcrowded air space, I just can't imagine even a few of these aircraft legally flying anywhere near populated areas of our country. I remember the aerocar at the San Diego Aerospace Museum before it was torched many years ago and everything lost. Best wishes for all of you and your efforts, though.

I would imagine licensing would be important. Might have to fly along freeways or secondary roads until reaching a major city with landings on building tops. Of course there would be Air Patrol looking for speeders, joy riders, etc.

It's cause they drone us to living death, that is why restrictions. Some drones are low altitude, some high. Having a ton of ev helicopters, is exactly how ya get overcrowded.
Best information about the subject
These are beautiful works of art. I look forward to the day the designers create something the size of a modern sedan that can be parked in a residential garage.
9:44 looks cool...i like that kind of designs..
FANTASTIIIIIIIIIIIC !

Funny joke but out of all of these startups, I only see Toyota commercializing their 2nd generation VTOL first and in their home market. They actually have a target date, engineers, tech and budget. They're experts in hydrogren/hybrids which is what's going to allow long range flight and quick refueling.

NEXUS is cool! Heaviside is nice.
Very fantastic
I liked the skyboat design best, you know, the one in the thumbnail. It would need a couple of mini jet thrusters and possibley aerofoil contoured semi ringwings attached to to leading circumference of the rotors. It would give it a speed boost and the rotors could be turned over to gyrocopter mode saving battery power for vertical landing and takeoff. If anyone could tell me if the overall idea is feasible or not, that would be good.
The guy landing @7:45 was so happy he made it and didn't crash and die. He almost couldn't believe it.
Very nice
This is the future. Solar in flight charging. Ultra light composite materials and totally new battery design such as no lead acid. Looking real promising.

The air taxi prototype is the future for what the commuter train is doing. I'm sure they'll be equipped with computer/ radar sensors so that they won't have to worry about collisions.
Very impressive
I'd love to get my hands on the last one they showed
Thank you
Great Newspaper
Very nice flying cars / taxies BUT Good luck!!!!! It's already a challenge on major cities for pedestrians trying to walk safely on sidewalks imagine now having all these flying cars / taxies above your head and between buildings. Stay tune....FUN TIMES AHEAD!!!
Any idea what happened to the Kyxz Mediola? I have their channel saved but have not seen any new uploads in about 2 years. The last vid sjhowed their single passenger model flying untethered.........? Thanks
yes. hope this will come to the Philippines asap
Need overhead high speed suspended pods, down media strip at 8 metres dropping to ground at stops
I'm still waiting to purchase the one man flyers. When will any be on the market to purchase
To extend flight time you need wings its as simple as that, maybe even a gyrocopter arrangement.

What about weather in all seasons (rain, snow, thunderstorms, high winds). What about navigation routes? And how about creature comforts like air conditioning and heat? Still quite a few issues to address, but I hope they are all solved in time.

. . . issues to address, but I hope they are all solved in time, and definitely at a lower price point than a Citation X. I think the Kitty Hawk Heaviside looks promising, with a claimed per mile kWh consumption at 1/2 that of the Tesla Model S.

I'll wait for the three or four shrouded versions of these with longer flight range and less charging time
I am glad to know. I have invested in this company. Regards.
From a technical perspective, certainly doable in the next few years. From a practical and cost perspective, probably decades away.
I grew up just down the road from where we could ride our bikes and see some cool planes landing and being tested . One of the hangers where my Aunt worked used to have something in it called an Avro car. If you haven't heard of it, check it out. I'd love to watch this video with those engineers

Dj DVEVO, "... I usually crash my drone ..." And that's probably into something stationary flying by yourself. Imagine lots of those things contending for the same space at the same time. Cars crash into each other all the time just dealing with two dimensions. Adding a third has to increase that risk. I'm wondering who will be performing air traffic control with these things? On board computers? (Oops, that last software update failed to load last night ...)
Would a small gas charger give enough electricity to keel the batteries charged longer with out blowing the battery up and prolong battery life? Also can heat from motor's be used can wind from propeller blades be used to keep charging batteries? Good luck! Awesome start
Bellissimissimo
Bell Nexus is my pick for best design.
I hope so that be cool
I’m certainly interested in getting of my own

Joby I believe has one that goes as fast or faster than these and farther distance.
Insha ALLAH this will happen brother...
I think the distance to weight ratio will be a huge factor in whether these vehicles will be used because I think distance will probably outweigh the amount of passengers you could utilize. Weight is obviously a huge factor over how long the battery will sustain itself. If it is a three manned double emergency/ traffic police vehicle where the two pilots are policing traffic areas when called into a accident or incident in the concentrating area. The pilots would also have to be paramedics where the third person is a potential patient that they would pick up in emergencies, way before a ambulance can get there in a congested traffic areas or remote locations where land vehicles can't reach, or reach quickly. The design of the vehicle would also be more beneficial if the back-up pilot not flying can monitor the patient while the patient is horizontal inside. Just a thought...
Смотрю на эти ролики и двоякие чувства возникают. С одной стороны, можно гордиться смелостью и пытливостью ума этих отважных ребят, строившие эти летательные аппараты и летающие на них. А с другой стороны мне их жалко, что в любой момент могут падать и разбиться с непредсказуемыми последствиями. А все только из--за того, что эти аппараты не защищены от аварий. Но вместе с тем вижу определенные решения, что могут эти аппараты и полеты на них сделать более безопасными. Если конечно высота превышает скажем 100 м, это конечно парашют. Но, как правило они летают не на больших высотах, что исключает применение парашютов, не успеют раскрываться. На эти случаи вижу такое решение, это применение больших и легких воздушных подушек под аппаратами из современных, легких и сверхпрочных материалов, баллона со сжатым воздухом и специальными, управляемыми клапанами мгновенного спуска воздуха с болона и из подушки, с определенной скоростью и потоком, что динамично погасит удар аппарата об землю. Именно этот клапан должен управляться встроенным в систему компьютером, с определенной программой, что сделает удар об землю безопасным и динамично спустит воздух.
great idea, But still a long way to go before they sell publically
