Powered by a BMW engine and normal fuel, the AirCar flew for 35 minutes between two Slovakian airports in 2021, using runways for take-off and landing.

It took just over two minutes to transform from a car into an aircraft.

Now vehicles made based on its design will be used within a “specific geographical region” of China.

Hebei Jianxin Flying Car Technology Company, headquartered in Cangzhou, has purchased exclusive rights to manufacture and use AirCar aircraft inside an undisclosed area.

      You forgot the crucial aspect of the flying car concept. Privately owned flying cars are flown by unqualified idiots instead of qualified pilots and get basically no maintenance of safety inspections compared to planes and helicopters.
