- Urban eVTOL is developing a sleek-looking flying car that it claims will reach top speeds of 250-mph (400 km/h) and have a range close to 300 miles (483 km). — The flying car, called the LEO Coupe, is being developed by vertical propulsion systems specialist Pete Bitar and supercar designer Carlos Salaff, who is known for the Mazda Furai concept amongst other designs. Both are working under a new company, Urban eVTOL, to build new personal passenger aircraft that will allow anyone with enough money to enjoy the benefits of vertical takeoff and landing technologies from home. — The 3-seater LEO will utilize 16 10-kW vertical thrusters for vertical liftoff, and more at the back of the aircraft for horizontal thrust. — Impressively, Urban eVTOL says the LEO will only occupy one car space in a garage, meaning owners could stow it away at home.
