The era of flying cars finally seems to be at hand with the expected arrival of Aircar on the market in 2026. This revolutionary vehicle, developed by the company Slovak Klein Vision, promises to combine the features of a sports car and those of a passenger plane. Aircar may well change our way of moving forever, by offering us the possibility of going from road to the air in the blink of an eye. This ambitious project, in development for more than three decades, raises many exciting questions about the future of mobility.
A UFO on the road
Aircar, with its futuristic design and impressive performance, looks like an unidentified flying object when it is on the road. This vehicle is not content to be an ordinary car; It is designed to be a hybrid between a sports car and a plane. With four wheels, Aircar is distinguished from other flying cars projects that are generally based on tricycles. This four -wheeled configuration makes approval for the road more complex but ensures increased stability and performance.
Regarding the motorization, the Aircar will be offered with several options of 3.2 -liter v6 petrol engines. The basic model will offer 280 horsepower, with more powerful versions of up to 340 horsepower in twinbo. These specifications allow AIRCAR to easily reach 200 km/h on the road, while offering an autonomy of 800 kilometers. It is not only a quick car, but also a vehicle capable of traveling long distances without the need for frequent refueling.

Towards an amphibious flying car?
Aircar is impressive not only on the road, but also in the air. With its imposing dimensions 5.8 meters long and 2 meters wide, it is compared to a large luxury sedan. However, its light weight of around 800 kilos, thanks to a monocoque chassis, is a real asset for its air performance. When it is in plane mode, Aircar deploys its wings to reach an 8.2 meter wingspan and can fly at a cruising speed of 250 km/h. It can travel up to 1,000 kilometers with its 160 liters of gasoline, which is greater than many flying clubs.
The transition between the car and plane mode is made in just 80 seconds at a button. Aircar then turns, its wings are deployed, and the steering wheel becomes a flight order. However, to pilot Aircar in the air, a pilot license is necessary. Klein Vision even plans to decline Aircar in amphibious version, which would allow the vehicle to transform into a boat, opening even more possibilities for its users.

Certification challenges
Aircar, despite its promises, still has to overcome several obstacles before reaching the market. One of the main challenges is obtaining the certifications necessary to fly and roll. Although Aircar has already received certifications from the Slovak authorities, it is still awaiting approvals from EASA and FAA, as well as homologation for the road. Klein Vision is currently testing his fifth generation prototype, which should make it possible to obtain these precious certifications.
The company remains confident as to its ability to respect the scheduled calendar and deliver the first models from 2026. In parallel, Klein Vision works to improve Aircar, with projects for three and four -seater versions, and even a model with additional rotors. Each of these developments requires additional tests and certifications, but they show Klein Vision’s commitment to push the limits of technology.

A vision for the future of mobility
Aircar is not only a flying car project; It represents a daring vision of the future of mobility. By combining the features of a car and a plane, it could transform our way of traveling, making the journeys faster and more flexible. However, the marketing of Aircar also raises important questions about the infrastructure necessary to support a fleet of flying cars, as well as on regulations and safety.
As we get closer to 2026, it remains to be seen how Aircar will integrate into the current transport landscape. What will be the impacts of this technology on our daily life? How will cities and governments adapt to this new era of mobility?
