Anew study foundthat the cost of a flying car will come in at over $700,000.
However, I anticipate that people will start to use a flying taxi around 2030 on a small scale.
On June 28, it flew between cities in Slovakia.

The company claims the invention will cut the typical travel time between the cities by a factor of two.
This flight starts a new era of dual transportation vehicles, Klein said in anews release.
It opens a new category of transportation and returns the freedom originally attributed to cars back to the individual.

A hot new area is electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft powered by batteries.
Cars that fly could reduce traffic congestion in cities, Lee said, and they could reduce commuting time.
Furthermore, flying cars under development that use electrically driven propellers are more environmentally friendly than gas guzzlers.
Flying cars will advance aerospace engineering technology, said Lee.
What Took So Long?
For anyone who grew up watching or reading science fiction, flying cars have long been a distant dream.
The Autoplane was able to hop, but not fly.
Things are looking up for anyone who wants to drive and fly to work.
“But it’s part of our future solution of offering innovative, smart mobility solutions.”
But the future may be expensive.
The public acceptance of flying cars is the key to success.
