Cars 'penguin wings spread'

Next month, fans will be able to see the converted James Bond spy car into a miniature airplane easily sneaking into the air and making the first test flight.

Terrafugia, the new transport name is both capable of running on roads and being able to fly in the air. This type of dual transport has its compact size to fit into the garage. Just press the button, the bulky wings of the car will automatically fold up to return to the shape of a regular two-seater car. The time required to perform this operation takes only 15 seconds.

Terrafugia needs a flight with a length of 518m to take off.

Carl Dietrich, head of Massachusetts-based Terrafugia car manufacturing project, is proud: "This is the perfect design and the first real combination of cars and airplanes with auto-folding wings and All the parts needed for operating an aircraft are in this lovely 2-seater ".

The car uses regular oil and has the right size for the garage.

The engine of Terrafugia is up to 100 horsepower, equivalent to the engine of the Ford Fiesta, both on the road and in the air. In addition, if running at the speed of fuel saving 185km / hour, this car can run 804 km but only consumes 1 fuel tank.

The flying car can be displayed for a period of 18 months to satisfy everyone's curiosity

"Terrafugia has the same price as a Bently or Ferrari car, but I have received 40 orders so far," Dietrich said. "Compared to the cost of a plane, the price of Terrafugia is quite cheap, but compared to the cost of the car is still high".

If you buy a flying car, users will encounter a few problems such as: finding a place to land, must have both a driver's license and a plane license. However, those who built Terrafugia still believe in the future of this unique product.
