除了与日本政府以及车企合作开发飞行汽车外，优步还计划在未来五年内投资2000万欧元，在巴黎推出共享飞行汽车服务。它的目标是到2023年开始其空中出租车业务的商业化运营。另外，位于美国加利福尼亚州山景城的创业公司Kitty Hawk也在致力于开发飞行汽车，并在谷歌公司创始人拉里佩奇提供的支持下，于今年6月展示了一架飞行汽车原型车。

自汽车诞生一个多世纪以来，其基本结构并未发生过多的改变。但随着汽车变得越来越普及，各国居民特别是大城市居民机动车保有数量正在逐渐攀升，而城市的基础设施建设并未能跟上机动车数量增加的步伐，导致了严重的城市交通拥堵问题。根据预测，全球汽车销量在2025年将达到1.25亿辆。人口密度增大、交通拥堵不堪，无论怎样优化交通状况，二维地面总会有极限，三维交通似乎是个不错的选择。飞行汽车的出现成为解决由机动车数量上升导致城市拥堵问题的新途径，这也吸引了众多汽车厂商的进入。

“除了有时候会进行航空管制，空中没有任何拥堵，为什么我们不往这个方向发展呢？”保时捷销售主管冯佩德（Detlev von Platen）在该公司的新闻发布会上表示，“想想墨西哥或巴西，如果你想要行驶20公里，它可能需要4个小时，在空中它只需要几分钟。”他认为，“三维机动性”，即无人机可以快速绕过地面上拥挤的道路。“就像你驾驶保时捷一样，你可以驾驶无人机，无需飞行员执照。”他说。

罗尔斯·罗伊斯电气化团队主管罗布·沃特森指出，飞行汽车是交通电气化发展趋势的一部分，将“最终演变成为一场革命”

Shared flying vehicle service three dimensional traffic solution congestion

In addition to working with the Japanese government and auto companies to develop flying cars, Youbo plans to invest 20 million euros over the next five years to launch a shared flying car service in Paris. Its goal is to start commercial operation of its air taxi business by 2023. In addition, Kitty Hawk, a startup based in Mountain View, California, is also working on flying cars, and with the support of Google founder Larry Page, showed off a prototype flying car in June this year.

Since the birth of the automobile for more than a century, its basic structure has not changed much. However, with the increasing popularity of automobiles, the number of motor vehicles owned by residents in various countries, especially in large cities, is gradually rising. Infrastructure construction in cities has not kept pace with the increase in the number of motor vehicles, resulting in serious urban traffic congestion. According to forecasts, global vehicle sales will reach 125 million in 2025. With increasing population density and traffic congestion, no matter how to optimize traffic conditions, two-dimensional ground will always be limited, and three-dimensional traffic seems to be a good choice. The emergence of flying cars has become a new way to solve the problem of urban congestion caused by the increase in the number of motor vehicles, which has also attracted the entry of many automobile manufacturers.

"There is no air congestion except for air traffic control sometimes. Why don't we go in this direction?" "Think of Mexico or Brazil, if you want to drive 20 kilometers, it may take four hours, it only takes a few minutes in the air," Detlev von Platen, Porsche's head of sales, told the company's news conference. He believes that "three dimensional mobility", that is, UAV can quickly bypass the crowded roads on the ground. "Just like you drive Porsche, you can drive a UAV without a pilot's license." He said.

Rob Watson, director of Rawls Royce's electrification team, points out that flying cars are part of the trend toward electrification and will "eventually turn into a revolution."
