Ճանապարհային խցանումների դեմ պայքարի ևս մեկ միջոց. Audi-ն զարգացնում է ուղղահայաց թռչող կիսաավտոմեքենայի գաղափարը:

Ապագայի տաքսին կրկնակի պարկուճ է, որը մեքենայի նման կերթևեկի ճանապարհներով, իսկ խցանումների դեպքում օդ կբարձրանա, գրում է Daily Mail-ը:

Called Pop.Up, the modular system consists of a two-seater capsule that functions as a car or can be carried to the rider's destination by a vertical take-off and landing air vehicle when the roads are too congested.

Audi-ն վստահեցնում է, որ կոնցեպտը կարող է արդյունաբերական չափանիշ դառնալ թռչող տաքսիների ստեղծման համար, որոնք փողոցներում կհայտնվեն արդեն 2024-2027 թթ.:

Pop.Up Next անվամբ անսովոր տրասպորտային միջոցի պրոյեկտն առաջին անգամ առաջարկվել է անցած տարի՝ Ժնևի ավտոսրահում, Airbus ընկերության կողմից:

Once passengers reach their destination, the capsule and the aerial vehicle travel back to dedicated recharge stations where they wait to be summoned. The concept is the result of a partnership between the Ingolstadt-based car maker and Italodesign, a design and engineering company based in Moncalieri, Italy

Հավելենք, որ ապագայի տաքսին Audi-ի և Italdesign ինժեներական ընկերության միջև համագործակցության արդյունք է:

Audi is the first major car manufacturer to adopt the format, which could become an industry standard for flying taxis in the future, anticipated for public release between 2024 and 2027. This image shows a concept vehicle based on the design

Audi's concept was unveiled during a press preview at the Geneva international Motor Show, being held in Switzerland between March 8 and 18. The original Airbus Pop.Up design was revealed at last year's show

The entirely electric, fully automatic concept was first launched by Airbus in March 2017 but now the German auto firm has unveiled its unique spin on the idea

Pop.Up allows passengers to book their trip using a companion app and the system automatically suggests the best transportation solution based on timing, traffic congestion, costs and ridesharing demands

Using this information, Pop.Up lists what options it feels are reasonable for your journey - either the ground, the air or combination of both

The capsule will scan the passengers face for authenticity and according to a Audi's concept video, it will also show content on the screen for users to watch as they travel

The modular system includes a monocoque carbon-fibre cocoon passenger capsule, which measures 8.5 ft (2.6 m) long, 4.5 ft (1.4 m) high, and 16 ft (4.8 m) wide. The drone module is 14.4 ft (4.4 m long), 2.8 ft (0.8 m) high, and 16.4 ft (5.1 m) wide, with 5.8 ft (1.8 m) propellers powered by a 160 kW electric engine

The dominant interior design feature is a 49-inch screen, which passengers use to interact with the vehicle through speech and facial recognition, eye-tracking and touch sensitive buttons

The capsule is capable of transforming into a car by coupling to a ground module, which runs on a battery that can travel for 80 miles (130 km) on a single charge at a top speed of 60 mph (100 kmh). If the traffic becomes too heavy, you simply call a drone to grab your car and it will fly you to your destination

The capsule, while airborne, is capable of reaching speeds of up to 70 mph (120 kmh) and travelling distances of up to 30 miles (50 km) on one charge
