Get ready to commute in style. For the past three years, Passenger Drone has been developing a zero-emissions, easy-to-use passenger drone that has the potential to eliminate stressful commutes. With 16 electric engines, the drone can travel up to 80 km/h while barely making a noise. Not only will the Passenger Drone limit air and noise pollution, it could reduce stress levels and improve the general health of commuters around the world.

Paul (TheVTCGuy): Do you have one of these yet?

-OR-
Are you waiting for the Two-Seater so Anna can join you?

Have a Great Weekend!

Certainly getting close. The hover cars of the past could not carry enough fuel to support functional use, the drone has made it all a lot more compact and efficient, I note none of their video's show people actually in it! I can see this adding to alternate transport rather than replacing cars exclusively, but it also takes a leap of faith over just autonomous vehicles given it is in a 3d space, and falling out of the air has more impact generally than a car accident with airbags and crash protection designed for frontal impact. Add to that buildings, helicopters and planes, all of which have controlled airspace, travel faster. I suppose if it is autonomous then the pitch is people won't need pilot licenses or flying skills.
