      I was told that when we got to the cyberpunk dystopia, we will have flying cars!?!

      Where’s my goddamn flying car!?!

        NOTE: The only “flying cars” in the Bladerunner movies are either police vehicles or belonging to a megacorporation. Rarely, if ever, do you see a commoner with a “flying car” in most pieces of Cyberpunk.

          No love for the 5th Element?

            That wasn’t cyberpunk. Even though it did have an evil megacorporation, it lands primarily in the Sci-Fi fantasy category.

            PS: Love The 5th Element.

        Every time I hear about flying cars I keep thinking back to this onion video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hGjl3zcJMk

        You can order them here. That’s the ones that are in production. A few more are underway.

        https://www.pal-v.com/

        https://jetson.com/

        https://pivotal.aero/

        They cost a few 100k. You need a piloting license. These either need a runway or have limited range. Nice expensive toys but not that practical.

          They’re more “planes that drive” than “cars that fly”

            That’s what you get when physics matters.

            But the XPeng X3 might interest you. It’s also a bit like as transformer. It’s not for sale tho, but they have a remote controlled prototype.

        We have flying cars. They’re call helicopters and are extremely difficult to pilot.
