“Mendiola’s ‘flying car’ set the internet abuzz a couple months ago and attracted the interest of Star 8, an Australian company specializing in electric vehicles. Star 8 was so impressed with Mendiola’s creation that they’ve partnered up and intend on commercializing a vehicle similar to the Koncepto Millenya. Current plans call for an electric manned aerial vehicle to be launched with seating for up to two passengers and a combined weight of 200 kg (440 lbs). If the vehicle sees the light of day, it will be called the ‘Future 8’,” reports Car Scoops.
