- German company Lilium produces flying electric passenger drones. CNBC looks at the company’s testing site in Spain and whether so-called electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft (eVTOL) - popularly dubbed flying cars can take off.

No it’s a eVTOL plane not flying car! It can’t drive but vertically take off/ land, fly!
Can't wait for flying car crash compilation videos!
At 1:25, Matthias Meiner how about a video with a camera in the cockpit showing us the interior noise levels? It should be super quiet compared to a helicopter. How about videos showing off the smooth sound from an outside observer on the ground?
The type of accidents that will take place make flying cars a massive risk
What type of accidents?
@@PeterParker-wj3cr use your imagination
@@Mojavekight17 Typical internet response. Baseless personal opinion comment!...
@@PeterParker-wj3cr whatever you say...
@@PeterParker-wj3crsmall scale 9/11 scenario
with lithium ion battery
The Jetsons are shook!!!!
If it was ready (or close to it) the reporter would've flown in it. Time for a reality check.
Nope. Like learning to ride a bike or drive a car, you have to learn to fly a vtol
@@sor8104 I mean as a passenger. AFAIK all of them promise fully autonomous flight, and some are already flying with a test pilot.
AFAIK only EHang actually took passengers on demonstration flights.
Not a passanger done but an unmanned prototype.
Nice video.
I'm ok with driving in a normal road car as i dont want to die from a flying car.
Best thing about evtols is that we dont have to pave even more roads between cities.
The co2-emissions forpaving roads is quite high.
What I want to know is what is happening with his pants?????
Fingers crossed that these will actually be flying one day soon!
The wings is too damn big to drive on the street. If you trying to make it like car it has to fit to drive in the street.
"Electric Flying cars are on there way "....
Since start of this century.
Lol😄
Can't build flying car , that just a plane
No. It's not!
BUT these will NOT be operated by taxi drivers. Where are they going to find pilots? The Regionals are cutting flights because there are not enough pilots? There is NO WAY the FAA will allow autonomuse piloting with paying passengers on board!
Keeping the accident's in mind. I think the ground is a safer option (still hope to see how they adapt to it)
they have safety parachute just in case it runs out of battery and also have alot of jets incase one fails these ev plane will be safer than a car. with Ai. technology and a pilot there number one is safety.
@@ThePepsg35 still
Hope they come with parachute
Innovation is amazing. But it will widen the inequality gap further and many more will be left behind, unable to participate in the market.
Not human beings are advancing 👍👍👍👍
It’s technology is advancing faster than human beings put together today and in the future.
@Albert Pang And who is making the technology advanced? Is it something/someone other than human beings? No, it is obviously human beings only who are advancing in their knowledge & consequently making technology more advanced with the application of new & existing scientific knowledge!😅
Checkout cyclo rotor
Doroni will we the best one in the marketplace
The first working prototypes were there a few decades ago and although they get smarter and more efficient technologically there are a lot of issues on a societal level that prevent large scale adoption: landing / take-off sites and how to get to them without wasting the time you just saved. Sky traffic jams and break-downs and imagine the noise of hundreds of these flying over all day long. This will most likely remain a toy for the rich. Could work as a taxi service between skyscrapers or a solution in rural areas, although we already have helicopters and small propeller planes for that.
Most people can barely afford gas
More like a plane than a car... make something that looks like a drone...
Everyone will stay home on windy and rainy day!
Well there will be a solution to fly even if it is a storm
Most people can barely afford a taxi ride today, not sure how much room does the market have for air taxis. At the moment, it sure feels like it's targeting upper tier management business travel instead of taxi, hard to imagine day to day common folks using this service.
These cars will never be street legal.... until the government figure out how they gonna milk the Coffers.
The amount of idiots in this comment section. Do you know what "V T O L" stands for????! This isn't a car you drive on the streets. THIS ISN'T A CAR AT ALL
When will flying cars hit your roof?
When will normal cars hit your walls?
Yawn, been reading about these things forever in Popular Mechanics/Science. We all know it's not a viable avenue to pursue. Quit wasting time/money 😒
ever heard of an helicopter?? it just does the same job
But evtol r a way better than helicopters say lesser sound more efficient
A vtol is like a flying tesla. A helicopter is a vertical airplane
But they are not electric
Another case of somebody not paying attention to the video at all
no they will not
Yes they will
Human beings are always advancing ..!
tsssk. only for the rich.
No jarrod
And a car with the ability to fly isn't that special.. it has existed for decades. Will it change anything in our day to day lives? No.
No it hasn't existed for decades. A car with the ability to fly is stupid. A vtol isn't
No they won't. Flying cars will never be a thing - we already have helicopters and large drones and there is a reason why we don't all have one - it is unbelievably noisy and the downdraft they create blows everything around. No person would ever put up with their neighbour having a helipad or a landing strip (?!) in their back garden. This is complete nonsense.
That's why its electric. 🙄
Flying cars are stupid
