I can't buy an Xpeng car in the states because we have 199% tariffs. So instead of being forced to buy an inferior car here in the states I bought xpeng's stock.
You can buy something very similar in the US, but the licensing requirements are not sorted out yet. The smallest one is more like a flying motorcycle than a flying car, and I think it's not actually all that expensive.
So you drive a laptop ?
US just announced they will postpone the implementation of new tariffs until further notice, after Jake Sullivan visited BJ
China has become center of innovation. They innovate and sell their products at affordable
price.
Correct…a culture born out of a “century of humiliation” and economy of capitalist spirits moderated by socialistic values.
So unlike the West where it permits free liberation where power begets corruption with absolute power corrupting absolutely.
A neo feudalism of lords and serfdom. Return of feudalistic civilisation!
Looks way way better than Cybertruck.
Anything looks better than that hideous looking cyberrtruck...all tesla cars (in my view) are not appealing (except maybe model s)..but many buy their products (many who bought it hate the looks of teslas but have no other choice since it is a reliable EV)...
@@LaerKanan Check out another cybertruck from china, Changan Nevo.
For your information Tesla and Spacex are both Chinese startup investment which ElonMusk outsourcing from china to sell in US which is part government to help trade deficit.
This will be very good for Search & Rescue missions.
The initial purchasers are likely to be commercial operators eg helicopter hire companies and some companies who need a helicopter regularly for their operations e.g. inspecting grid cables.
@@eclecticcyclist or Taylor swift
Without the drone loaded at the back, this vehicle can be made into a pickup truck that looks much better and cooler than the Cybertruck!
Yes, but cooler than the cybercooler?
Looks like a 70’s Saturday morning cartoon fever dream
The future is coming along fast
This design is pretty nice! I didn’t think I’d be saying this but like the design of the car part more than the Cybertruck. Glad they took inspiration from the Cybertruck - shows the promise of that design language.
Xpeng have got their 'hand on it' with this one...
At first I thought it was a fake. Someone trolling us but I actually really like the concept. Wonder what another 10 years of battery and autonomous technology development will do to this concept?
The future is here..
Nice Beheading rotors on it!
Calling that a ‘flying car’ is like calling a yacht with a helipad a ‘flying boat.’
Sam, No Pilots licensee required for 'Jetson' drone aircraft in US, so I'm assuming same for the Xpeng.
FSD in the air is the future.
Like Back To Future 2.
Just give it 10 more years maybe.
This is not a flying car, it’s a van and a large drone in the boot!
Xpeng with flying car is much better than Tesla Cybertruck.
Looks much better than Cyber Truck. Cyber Truck is bullet resistant. Comes in handy in the US. This would work great in dense city where they have a lot of rich people like Saudi and Singapore.
I think it could, but you would have to build a city with that in mind as chargers would have to be on the roof of buildings or the top floor of parking garages.
Wireless chargers under the drive way
They can keep that! When you’re talking about flying craft, it needs to be a well maintained craft. With that said, this is for the rich or commercial use ONLY!
Cool but i can only imagine the liability and insurance. This thing breaks down, fails and the occupants are goners....along with people below them. Bird strikes? Maybe you live on a farm and can build a landing pad but what about your destination? Over here land is at a premium in town and even car stalls are undersized. Nobody is going to set aside the space to clear those rotors. That would make for massive parking spaces. I love blade runner as much as the next guy but I cant see flying cars occuring anytime soon.
Modern electric motors are extremely reliable, almost fail proof! And there are 6 of them, even 2-3 motors fail at the same time it’s still able to land safely.
I think if they sold the transport vehicle itself without the flying copter they would get more preorders.
Hey Sam. I was interested in Blackfly when it was shown a few years back but the problem with these vehicles is they always run out of money so who knows maybe this will be the one to break the mold.
Finally somebody talks about it.
This is bonkers and I love it! 😂😂😂
If Jetsons type flying cars did really exist, they could probably be limited to 30mph. Doing that speed "as the crow flies" would still be faster than going round a load of roads!
Imagine every tattooed yobbo with one of these in their backyards. The horror!
This is just a marketing stunt. There is no way this thing has a decent range, and even less chances that this gets approval anywhere outside China.
The idea has been on and off for decades. Technology has advanced a lot. Maybe it is time for it now.
This will be displayed in November at the Guangzhou International Automobile Exhibition and I will be checking it out . I think Viking was trying to say this, but badly mispronounced it. Viking, pronounce it like "Gwong-Joe".
If it's self driving you might not need a pilot's license, if they are legal at all. Also, note that there are already other electric planes now being used for pilot training in a couple of European countries, and being an EV makes it much cheaper to get in the flying hours needed for a license.
I did wonder if I would need a pilots licence to fly around my land?
Pilot training in electric Pipistrel planes is available in Australia 👍🏽
It depends upon how they classify this thing, when they try to sell in a country.
@@malcolmrickarby2313 They seem to be trying it out in the USA too, but I don't think it's fully certified because of different range requirements.
There are quite a few companies working on flying cars and flying motorcycles.
The Jetsons? I'll believe it when I see it in MAINSTREAM usage.
I would live in Shenzhen, get this monster and then fly to Kunming over the weekends.
This is the new A TEAM Van version
So when you're stuck in traffic and need to bail, you pull over and get in the whirly bird, come back when the traffic is over. Pretty nice.
...you don't come back...the car drives itself to you.
Why wait till you get stuck in traffic??
30 hours training for a sport license and you are flying
You're right Sam - how do you pronounce Xpeng? Seems there are several different ways to pronounce it - and this is coming from Chinese sources. Go figure. Shour-pung, x-pung, x-peng, she-peng, and probably a few more. And they say English is a hard language to master! 🙂
How does the drone recharge? From the carrier? If so, it would be super sweet if the carrier had self-drive. That way you could fly to your destination then the carrier could follow you and then recharge the drone so it was ready for you once you are done.
We Are in Unchartered Financial Waters! every day we encounter challenges that have become the new standard. Although we previously perceived it as a crisis, we now acknowledge it as the new normal and must adapt accordingly. Given the current economic difficulties that the country is experiencing in 2024, how can we enhance our earnings during this period of adjustment? I cannot let my $680,000 savings vanish after putting in so much effort to accumulate them.,.
Keeping some gold is usually a wise decision. You would be better off keeping away from equities for a bit or, even better, seeking advice from an expert given the current market conditions and everything that is at risk with the current economy.
You have a very valid point, I started investing on my own and for a long time, the market was really ripping me off. I decided to hire a CFA, even though I was skeptical at first, and I beat the market by more than 9%. I thought it was a fluke until it happened two years in a row, and so I’ve been sticking to investing via an analyst
Could you possibly recommend a CFA you've consulted with?
My CFA NICOLE ANASTASIA PLUMLEE a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further... She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market..
..
Thank you for saving me hours of back and forth investigation into the markets. I simply copied and pasted her full name into my browser, and her website came up first in search results. She looks flawless.
Can you imagine the chaos of people having flying cars? Think about the ATC issues. How could you possibly allow them to be used in anything other than very niche situations and under intense control, just like General Aviation. Maybe you can do what you like in China, but not in the West.
It's more of a van with a quadcopter in the back. There are plenty of transforming flying car concepts. Aeromobil is more of a flying car, but it doesn't take off and land vertically. You must driving to an airstrip to take off. Prototypes have been produced. The Terrafugia Transition is similar and received a lot of attention a few years ago. The PAL-V transitions into a gyroplane, so it doesn't take off vertically, but it requires a very short runway. It was supposed to be produced, beyond prototypes, this year. Don't know if it will be.
Flying cars are definitely closer to reality than humanoid bots, and I'd rather have one, but I'm not expecting either anytime soon.
If three hundred grand seems incredibly cheap to you, your channel is doing very well.
If you want it to seem more realistic in only a few years, get Elon to pitch it.
Maybe in a year or two Elon will present the same concept and claim he thought it first. 😂
💯 Percent. Much sooner Sam. A few years in China. Look what they are doing in the plane area with the C919. John 🇬🇧
The charging speed is faster in 800V architectures, but over time, 800V architectures are more prone to issues with insulation resistance if proper care is not taken in the design and selection of insulating materials. Could it be that after 2, 3, or 4 years, we will start facing problems with cars that have these architectures?
No ! You do not need a pilots licence because it is classed as a ultralight and there is a flight computer and it is fly by wire. It is as easy to fly as to play a video game but you will want one hell of an airbag or parachute
Cheers bro
yes its the future
IMO flying in your private car will stay an exception. Like owning a Ferrari, but more so.
I'd rather some brand develop solar panels that cover your EV and can load 80% during 1 day.
Then we'll have folks scrambling for parking spots in the sun, instead of the shade!
Not aReally a flying car, buy a Aircraft carrier. That said make that 6 wheel drive and a camper van interior , AND I'M IN !
This is very exciting
Looks better then a Cybertruck 😅😅😅
It looks like a cobbled-together copy with add-ons of the Cybertruck. I like the look of the Cybertruck better, because it's at truck, not some combo of SUV and truck and drone delivery thing.
Any thing looks better than that junk called cybertruck...
Honestly this would be worth it just to see the look on peoples' faces when you pull over to the side of the road and start unloading it in the middle of traffic.
Gotta get one no matter what!
Yes, I think EVTOLs are coming sooner than people realize. The technology convergence is happening to enable them: High speed internet everywhere, Battery tech, Autonomous AI.
Now there's going to be a charger in the sky?!! 😂😂
I am a blind subscriber
If any other subscribers have the time could they please try describe with a blind person in mind what this machine or machines look like they sound intriguing
Cheers
The cavernous van/truck would be a useful vehicle if AWD with that kind of range 😊
Ive got a lunch box from 1967 with moon bases and rockets…..still waiting.
I wonder what would happen if even only one of the motors packed in?
It looks like you'd head south pretty quickly if it did.
Parking might be a challenge in the city
Great starting pointing, but a vehicle that can do both than two units is needed, and this is more pie in the sky, and too rich for the ordinary buyer to be a practical buy. I'm still waiting for a future Tesla with FSD5 to drop to USD 10,000 or even 5,000, not 35,000.
In China, 'XPeng' prounced 'xiao peng', (yes, same chinese charactor as 'Xiao' in 'xiaomi'), after the name of the founder 'He Xiao-Peng', who is also from same province as Lei Jun, founder of Xiaomi. Lei also helped him at the very critical starting stage of XPeng.
Surprised this channel not covering the collapse of EV sales in Australia .... ( and pretty much everywhere else, and Volvo reneging on their 'EV' only strategy )
This XPeng car is destined to be a commercial success. Simply because highways already have too much traffic. Because of induced demand, if you double the highway lanes, it means that in 3 to 5 years, people will purchase three times more cars. In the end, it's practically impossible to reduce traffic congestion and there's no where to park.
No it’s not destined to be a success.
nice choice mate
Thanks!
1:48 a couple eating and drinking wine on a snow covered mountain plateau. The woman is wearing summer clothes . Not Fake.
Yeah, this is cool, but the fake photoshop type video promo ad doesnt inspire much confidence. Its like a video version of an aliexpress ad that makes a product look way better then it really is. But then again all chinese sellers do this, so maybe its just part of the culture now. I dont think there is any actualy real footage of it flying.. cant argue with the idea of a lifesize drone, and that battery seems impressive, still a toy for the rich I think more then a practicle flying vehicle but someones gotta start somewhere so good for them.
Non-CGI version. ua-cam.com/video/4YblfnQRsuA/v-deo.html . There are lengthier videos on Chinese social media.
In the spring there are days in the snow covered mountains where tee shirt are fine. Most of sun shine is reflected so it can be very comfortable. I had a home at 6000 feet in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and often had 8 feet of snow well into the start of outdoor BQ season, entering on the second floor entrance until early june when one could drive to the house. That was T-shirt and shorts weather and all the girls started on their tans wearing bikinis when 4-5 feet of snow was still on the ground, The light reflecting off the snow would accelerate tanning.
With AI looking after air traffic control this will be safer, quicker and quieter than existing road cars. It could free the roads for walking and cycling 🚴♀️.😊
It will totally happen. But not until autopilot is perfected.
I think they may have bought this vehicle from another company. There are YT videos from 2 years ago showing something very like it called the Jetson One.
i just want the van, you can keep the multirotor
I firmly believe it will be realized in future, perhaps the coming decade, though the video is generated using computer just like a zoning plan in the real estate industry shows the future of a certain district
It would be good if they had an option with a bigger battery pack to allow you to recharge the flying car when it's docked.
@@timfehlberg9051 why you thing it doesn’t ?
I don't know if there are multiple battery options or not, it would be good if there was though. If not, it's still good!
I saw it at CES. Looks awesome. It would have to be fully automated for mass adoption.
When I drive around my area, the thought of these idiots moving in 3D is horrifying!!!!
It’ll never fly in the usa, the FAA would ground all them the first time there was a bird impact. lol
Those Evtols would be mostly computer controlled without a wind or wing mode. Does it do the transformer thing ?
Yeah, it is pronounced more like “puhng” than “paing”.
Thunderbirds are go!!
So would the "aircraft carrier's" oversize battery be used to charge the flying craft?
I would never purchase a mode of transportation that I would be afraid to get into.
Yes & China will lead the way with autonomous flight. Haven't you heard of Ehang?
I think is is highly unlikely this will be a mainstream thing in the near future. Maybe 30 years from now. Flying is pretty inefficient and people tend to adapt slowly. I think evtol taxis are realistic though (just as helicopters are, but evtols will be more popular) and there are some companies working with that in mind.
Sick
Likely you won’t be able to fly the drone like heli. It’ll all be autonomous so you won’t need a license.
I can see one important use for it; " Honey have you seen Mother?" "I've sent her on head in the Copter".......................
I would to get a license to fly this.🎉
There's no way this thing will be allowed to take off from public streets. There's overhead power lines, cellular towers, other aircraft, all kinds of stuff that it could collide with. The only way anything like this will ever be available to the public is if it's 100% automated and flies only in designated areas and at certain altitudes. They are not going to let the masses fly around in these. Imagine the mayhem if you take off and didn't realize your neighbour just took off at the same time and was flying in your direction. You'd need eyes in the back of your head.
All problems that can be solved by existing technology. The birds and insects figured it out 😮
@@malcolmrickarby2313 A lot of birds get killed by existing technology too (birdstrike on planes, cars, etc) Just saying...
In my opinion flying cars will not take off (figuratively) before the major issues of traffic control and guidance and routing are solved. Any current air traffic control system would collapse if even a moderate number of flying cars were added to it and I really wouldn't want to trust a random guy or girl off the street in a flying car, even with a pilot's license. Additionally, no current aircraft routing network is currently set up for flying cars (or helicopters) in large numbers.
Absolutely right.
Absolute wrong! Over the last hundred years the aviation industry has developed rapidly and will continue to improve with AI and autonomous flying vehicles completely possible for our immediate future.😊
The main hurdle is system of air lanes so they are not free to fly anywhere which would be ok only for the first year or two but after 10s of thousands are in the air and probably at modest altitude to save power by not having to climb into open air, about any towers or hills. Climbing to 1 thousand meters would really shorten the range. So staying low, under 100 meters would greatly increase of collisions with towers or tall buildings. So a system of sky lanes would be needed between more active routes. That system and pilot training could allow less intensive training as required for a private pilots fixed wing craft ticket. If the guidance system keep the flying car a programmed sky sky lane and prevent free flight over say, 300 meters above ground level and out of airport approaches, The tech is hear now to do all that. Can it fly with 2 oe 3 rotors operating? If they all have independent controllers it should be pretty east to decend safely wiith one oe 2 failed rotors. When I took my basic pilots training in my Piper Arrow I had to take greater number of hours flying because it was classed as a Complex High Performance because it had retractable landing rear and Constant Speed prop. That had one 350horse power engine so lots of practice descending and landing without power. But a plane has wing lift passively. So One can lose power and stay in the air a long relatively long time to get to an airport or low traffic secondary road if is had no trees or power lines near the roadbed. A helicopter's wings are the blades of the pros and tiny blades would not provide much lift if one lost power. so seperate power supplies would be needed for each motor.
All could be done but remember planes are powered gliders and helicopters are powered bricks. Tiny rotors would offer no option for autorotation like a real helicopter has but each with some left, it is still going down
Noise nuisance will kill it if nothing else does.
No pilots or licenses required and for emergency descent,existing ones use a ballistic parachute .😊
The vehicle looks way better than the cyber junk could be used by emergency services. Flying cars will come in about 50 years.
Don't need s pilot license because it fly it's self fsd just say where you wont to go
There is no way this is ready for three real-world
Also did not go up in flames. Would an ICE gas tank survive?
That’s not a flying car. It’s a truck with a large quadcopter in the back
Another vehicle that will never be available in Canada. The problem with our strategy is that we think we will be left behind gradually. Our government people don't understand what "China speed" is. We are going to get left behind very rapidly. The US likewise.
The self driving car is the mobile charging station catches you up later.
Fast and the Furious already giving it a script.
what will traffic control for air vehicles look like? .. what about collisions - loads of debris crashing round the ears of folk below.
