没想到，竟然这么快就推出了首款飞行汽车，并实现了量产！吉利控股集团8月1日消息，Terrafugi“太力”飞行汽车，预计今年10月开始第一代产品Transition的预订工作，并公布了两座飞行汽车Transition®量产车型的产品细节。将于2019年问世，是的，你没有看错，就是会飞的汽车！不是路上跑的，也不是水里游的，而是插上了翅膀，可以飞向蓝天的汽车。但首批用户将主要针对美国市场。

该产品包括混合动力发动机，更强的推进系统，全新升级的内饰和安全系统，还将与技术领先的航空电子设备和降落伞供应商合作。这款名叫Transition的飞行汽车，有一对折叠机翼，重约1300磅，可以路上跑也可以飞上天。允许乘坐2人，最大飞行高度为 1 万英尺（3048米），最高飞行速度为160 公里/小时，可实现空中续航 640 公里，每小时需燃烧 19L 燃油，百公里油耗约为 11.87 L，仅相当于2.0T的汽车。

但基于它能开又能飞的特性，所以如果你想要操纵Transition，不仅需要汽车驾照，还需要飞行执照！在路面上行走，机翼将折叠起来，整车宽度跟传统汽车差不多；准备起飞时，机翼将伸展开来，直接转化成飞行模式；

翱翔天际，不在话下！和普通的汽车一样，采用的也是圆形方向盘；Transition使用的无铅汽油发动机，可以在任何一个加油站加油。

除此之外，这款飞行汽车还配备了实现陆地、天空运行的全套安全出行方案！电子飞行信息系统、全套降落伞系统、安全气囊、倒车后视，等等......

日本组建财团做飞行汽车研发

日本政府希望在未来的飞行汽车领域发挥决定性作用,特别是在立法和监管领域。为了实现这一目标,日本政府各部门组建了一个由21家公共和私人实体组成的财团,其中包括优步(Uber)、波音(Boeing)、空客(Airbus)、日本航空(Japan Airlines)、全日空(ANA Holdings)、日本最大的快递服务公司大和控股(Yamato Holdings),以及丰田支持的初创企业Cartivator等。该财团希望能在未来10年里推动飞行汽车商用化落地。

今日,该财团召开第一次全体会议,开始规划成功之路。据业内人士分析称,日本政府在自动驾驶汽车技术方面稍落后于中、美两国,因此它迫切希望能够“促进立法和基础设施建设,以帮助获得领导地位”,成为其他国家的榜样。更实际的担忧包括,飞行汽车能够减轻日本本土交通日益拥堵的状况。考虑到日本多山的岛屿地形及多发性地质灾难特质,飞行汽车将改善政府救灾和灾民疏散工作,并促进旅游业的发展。

Unexpectedly, the first flying car was launched so quickly and realized mass production. Geely Holdings Group reported Aug. 1 that Terrafugi Flying Vehicle is expected to begin reservations for the first generation Transition in October this year, and released details of the two Flying Vehicles Transition <. Coming out in 2019, yes, you are not mistaken, that is, a flying car! Instead of running on the road or swimming in the water, instead of flying into the blue sky, it has wings. But the first batch of users will mainly focus on the US market.

The product includes hybrid engines, stronger propulsion systems, upgraded interiors and safety systems, and will work with leading avionics and parachute suppliers. The flying car, called Transition, has a pair of folding wings and weighs about 1,300 pounds. It can run on the road and fly to the sky. Two passengers are allowed to fly at a maximum altitude of 10,000 feet (3048 meters) and a maximum speed of 160 kilometers per hour. The maximum flying speed is 640 kilometers per hour. It burns 19 L of fuel per hour. The fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is about 11.87 L, which is equivalent to only 2.0 T vehicles.

But because it can drive and fly, if you want to operate the Transition, you need not only a driver's license, but also a flight license! When you walk on the road, the wings fold up and the width of the vehicle is about the same as that of a conventional car; when you are ready to take off, the wings will be stretched out and converted directly into flight mode.

Flying across the sky is nothing! Like ordinary cars, it uses a circular steering wheel; the unleaded gasoline engine used by Transition can fill up at any gas station.

In addition, the flying car is equipped with a full range of land and sky travel safety programs! Electronic flight information system, a full set of parachute systems, airbags, reversing rear view, and so on.

Japan formed a consortium to do research on flying cars

The Japanese government hopes to play a decisive role in the future of flying automobiles, especially in the areas of legislation and regulation. To achieve this, Japanese government departments have formed a consortium of 21 public and private entities, including Uber, Boeing, Airbus, Japan Airlines, ANA Holdings, Yamato Holdings, Japan's largest express service company, and Toyota. Supported start-ups such as Cartivator. The consortium hopes to promote the commercialization of flying cars in the next 10 years.

Today, the consortium held its first plenary meeting to begin planning the road to success. According to industry analysts, the Japanese government has lagged behind the US and China in the technology of autopilot, so it is eager to "promote legislation and infrastructure construction to help win leadership" and become an example for other countries. More practical concerns include the fact that flying cars can relieve Japan's increasingly congested domestic traffic. Considering the mountainous island terrain and the nature of multiple geological disasters in Japan, flying cars will improve government relief and evacuation efforts and promote tourism.
