Airbus Flying Car? Vahana Prototype To Be Ready For Test By 2017-End, CEO Tom Enders Says

We have all seen futuristic movies or read sci-fi books that feature flying cars that zoom and swerve in the skies, leaving behind the congestion of the urban sprawls below. And one company is working toward making that a reality in a not-too-distant future. French aerospace giant Airbus, commonly known for building airplanes, has been working on a flying car since mid-2016. Called Vahana (a Sanskrit word that means the vehicle of gods), it is meant to be "a self-piloted flying vehicle platform for individual passenger and cargo transport." The project is a part of the company's A 3 division, located in Silicon Valley, California.
