Good news, future-dwellers! The Jetsons lied about the timeline, but flying cars are finally taking off — literally. Introducing the AirCar, the world’s first flying car going into mass production, brought to you by Slovak engineer Stefan Klein, a man who looked at traffic and said, “Nope, I’ll just fly over it.
This isn’t some sci-fi fever dream — it’s a real thing that transforms from sports car to airplane in under two minutes. One button. Boom. Wings. It’s like if Batman and Optimus Prime had a very expensive baby.
But before you start checking Zillow for sky garages, here’s the catch: you need a driver’s license, a pilot’s license, and somewhere between $800,000 and $1 million lying around. So unless you’re Bruce Wayne, Tony Stark, or just very good at crypto, you’ll still be on the ground watching billionaires buzz by overhead — probably on their way to brunch.
It also needs a 300-meter runway to take off, which rules out your driveway (unless you live at an airport).
The AirCar, built by Klein Vision, is set to roll (and fly) off production lines this summer and hit the skies by 2026. It recently made a star-studded appearance at a Beverly Hills gala, where it opened its wings like a show-off peacock and stole the spotlight from astronauts and celebrities.
So yeah — the future is here. It’s fast. It’s shiny. And it costs more than your house.
