Would you buy this car for $300,000?
-
Can I see the flying in action before preorder?
-
For that matter, can I see proposed licensing requirements as well as proposed “traffic controls”?
-
How much space do I need for takeoff and landing? Can I do so on a Highway?

Until they offer VTOLs it won’t fly.
It does that. Then the "car" rotates on its long axis propelling it forward.
A computer-generated animation showed that the car contains eight rotating blades underneath its permeable bodywork, which allow it to rise vertically.
Once it is a few meters in the air, the whole car rotates sideways so that the blades can propel it forward, while the passenger seat turns so that the passenger remains upright during flight.
"The whole car becomes a wing—a biplane, a circular wing," the founder of the Stanford Science Fiction Society said, adding that the car had "a very specific body-wing geometry" to allow it to fly with limited resistance.
