# Flying Car Company Taking Orders For 2020 Delivery

It's starting to look less and less like vaporware, as Slovakian flying car company [AeroMobil](<https://www.aeromobil.com/>) has announced it will make its first deliveries of flying cars sometime in 2020, [*Reuters*](<https://www.reuters.com/article/aeromobil-flyingcar-idUSL8N1HS4KS>) reports. With prices starting $1.2 million, the privilege to take either the road or the sky doesn't come cheap, but that's to be expected.

According to AeroMobil, its flying car can transform into a sky-ready plane in under three minutes, during which its retractable wings fold out from being tucked in during road use. A turbocharged boxer engine that creates around 300 horsepower powers the flying car in both the sky and road, although that engine in road use powers a pair of electric motors that drive the front wheels.

In order to own the flying car, however, owners must have both a driver's and pilot's license, AeroMobil Chief Communications Officer, Stefan Vadocz, said to [*Reuters*](<https://www.reuters.com/article/aeromobil-flyingcar-idUSL8N1HS4KS>)*.* And in order to actually take advantage of the flying capabilities, owners must use an airfield or other approved take-off place. Attempting to take off on a highway, then, isn't the best idea.

We still may be a few years out, but if AeroMobil has its way, there will be real, functioning flying cars on the road and skies in less than three years.
