It’s the first fully electric vehicle that can both fly with vertical takeoff and drive on roads to receive U.S. government approval, according to the company.
It’s already available for pre-sale with a price tag of $300,000.
The car has a driving range of 200 miles and a flight range of 110 miles, according to a press release. “The Alef Model is a modern solution for both urban and rural transportation needs in the 21st century because it is the fastest and most convenient transport ever created from the point of origin to the final destination. By enabling consumers to choose driving or flying mode, the Alef flying car allows the optimal path depending on road conditions, weather and infrastructure,” said Alef’s CEO Jim Dukhovny.
