The test flight was completed over the capital city of Bratislava on Tuesday afternoon and lasted slightly more than a half hour, according to AeroMobil. The company didn’t say how high it flew or how fast it traveled, or whether the vehicle is expected to go into production. However, Vaculik said AeroMobil has received “several hundred” queries about future purchases so far.

The flying car doesn’t come cheap -– potential buyers will have to pay nearly $1 million for their own set of wings and wheels. Pricing is based on luxury items such as “bespoke” seats upholstered with leather, but these can be removed in order to save space during the flight.

“Manned vehicle flights are hard to come by for obvious reasons,” according to the website, “but it is also difficult to imagine a future without flying cars.”

AeroMobil previously announced plans in October 2017 for its 2018 test flight and said at the time that it was looking into production of the new model of its vehicles as soon as 2019. The company has since been granted an experimental airworthiness certificate from Slovakia’s Ministry of Transport, although there have not been any announcements about when early adopters can expect their orders to be fulfilled.

The latest prototype remained on ground during Tuesday’s test run but AeroMobil says on its website that the modern version of what it calls “street-legal airplanes” can take off from 172-foot long runways. The ability of the vehicle to fly and land vertically means it could also be useful for search and rescue operations, according to AeroMobil.

It’s no stretch of the imagination that flying cars are a passion project for some tech visionaries like Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi. In July 2018, Khosrowshahi said he is confident about making flying taxis commercially available in Los Angeles by 2020 . He told Bloomberg Businessweek that such vehicles would have “more than 100 miles range , vertical takeoff and landing capability on demand… so if you want to get somewhere without traffic and fast, you press a button.”
