Terrafugia Transition New Car

Today we're introducing to you a new car the Terrafugia Transition a Roadable Aircraft meaning it is a car that can transform into a plane, imagine having your own personal aircraft that can fit into your garage. But I think it would be even better if they could modify this new car making this fly in its standpoint rather than using a runway but I guess that is still not possible.

Terrafugia Transition® is a "Flying Car" one of the simple description, this new car is considered an aircraft though, while on the road, the Transition® performs well too, its wings are folded making it almost the same size as a normal car that fits on any standard garage, this new car drives on the road at a standard highway level speed considerably fast and on the other side when it transforms to its aircraft mode, the Terrafugia Transition® can cruise literally at a speed of more than a 100 mph like a standard aviation aircraft. The Terrafugia Transition® is allowed to use almost 5000+ public airports making it convinient to the owner of this new car.

Terrafugia Transition® is a 2 seater vehicle and has a 460 miles range and consumes 30 mpg of fuel on the road, this new car is able to fly at a speed of over 100 mph. Other features of this Terrafugia Transition® includes a convenient electromechanical wing activation system, aerodynamic bumpers, a safety-cage and crumple zones, and a full-vehicle parachute.

This new car transforms from car mode to its aircraft in approximately 30 seconds and the same vice versa and it requires a drivers and a pilots license for one to be able to legally drive this thing.

Terrafugia Transition would cost around $194,000 base on the researches I've made.
