The future of flying cars

10 maart 2022Door MASTERS Redactie1 min lezenLIFESTYLE & TECH

The future of flying cars is looking increasingly bright. For less than a ton you can get the Jetson ONE: your own means of air transport. The Swedish company aims to allow everyone to become a pilot. The first model is equipped with a safety cage based on racing cars. Text: Dennis Gandasoebatra

The flying car system also has a ballistic parachute, so that in the event of a (motor) emergency you land relatively quietly on the ground. If legislation allows it, you can theoretically take off from your own garden. You shouldn't be on the road for too long: with current battery technology, the device can last 20 minutes of flight. Charging then takes place within a reasonable hour. Each model is equipped with two spare computers, so that in case of problems with the flight computer, one of the backups can always be used. Target price: €92.000.

LXRY LIST 2022

The annual LXRY List 2022 booklet takes a look into the distance, where new opportunities dawn. Doing business with a view to a better world. Rewilding Europe is committed to saving lost animal species by making room for truly wild nature. And De Apostelhoeve is taking advantage of the warming by growing wine on the Limburg hills and gaining international recognition for it. In addition to these budding economies, attention is also paid to sustainable initiatives. Such as the new Tank Must from Cartier, a watch that runs on solar energy. And a lamp against light pollution. But the list also includes an over-the-top hotel stay in Versailles Palace. Après nous, le déluge? No, but there should also be room to enjoy and experience in the new world.
