American company Alef Aeronautics has announced the start of production of the Model A, the world's first flying car. The cars will be hand-assembled in Silicon Valley and initially available to a limited number of customers for testing. The Model A can be driven like a regular electric car and take off vertically, reaching a cruising speed of 177 km/h. It has a capacity for two people and a range of 321 km on the ground and 177 km in the air. The company has already received 3,500 pre-orders, with a total value of over £800 million, and aims to automate production and reduce costs in the future.
