Flying taxis are back, because apparently, traffic has people asking for a sky lane.
Beta Technologies’ Alia 250 is an electric air taxi built to lift off vertically, then cruise like a plane. It has five motors, five battery packs, room for a pilot and five passengers and a roughly 290-mile range.
