Remember how you thought the future would be about flying cars? Well, the future is here or almost here anyway.
Terrafugia, a company founded by a group of M.I.T. graduates in 2006, has made a flying car and is circulating a video of it (see below). The vehicle, called the Terrafugia TF-X, is expected to hit the market about 2021.
Orders are being taken for a transitional craft — appropriately called the Terrafugia Transition — now. The cost is $279,000.
The Transition is described by the company as a “street-legal airplane”. They are calling the TF-X a “flying car”.
Terrafugia is the only car company registered in Massachusetts.
