Flying Car Costing Rs 2.5 Crore Takes Flight For The First Time

The US-based automaker released the first video of the vehicle soaring into the sky, which appears to be straight out of a sci-fi movie.

Using distributed electric propulsion, with a mesh layer covering the propeller blades, the car was able to soar above the ground. As per a report in New York Post, the company used a prototype for the trial which was an ultralight version of the Alef Model Zero.

futuristic vehicle, touted as the antidote to serpentine traffic jams, has taken its first flight. Alef Aeronautics' Rs 2.5 crore ($300,000) vehicle can be driven like a normal car in the streets but it also has propellers in the bonnet and the boot that allows it to take off at any time.
