Flying cars may be years away, but the SkyFly Axe can already be pre-ordered, with delivers set to begin in 2024. Priced from $180,000 USD, it features four coaxially mounted propellers driven by two 35-kW motors. For added safety, the Axe sports a flight control system with quadruple redundancy, including two separate battery packs.
Weighing in at 944-pounds equipped with a 48-kWh battery, the eVTOL can safely transport two passengers (up to 379-pounds) and fly for 100-miles purely on battery power. Should you require 200-miles of range, there’s an optional hybrid system that can be installed, which adds a generator. If you demand nothing but the fastest eVTOL, there’s the hypercar-inspired Leo Coupe.
