![]() ![]() "While it sounds like science fiction, it might very well be our daily life in 50 years," he wrote. The challenges might be worth surmounting: An "age of magnetism" could revolutionize the energy industry and help battle climate change, according to a 2018 LinkedIn post by George Sassine, a vice president at New York's State Energy Research and Development Authority. Last year, China debuted a maglev bullet train in Qingdao, Shandong province, last year that can reach a top speed of 373 miles per hour. For instance, what happens if a car traveling at high speeds floats off its magnetic track, or is knocked off course by a non-magnetic vehicle? There's also the very difficult issue of infrastructure: Building a nationwide network of electromagnetic highways would likely take years and a massive public investment in any country, notes the AutomoBlog. China, Japan and South Korea all use maglev trains today. Researchers have been exploring the potential for maglev cars for more than a decade, with Volkswagen designing a hover car concept in 2012.īut potential safety issues still need to be worked out. The technology has been proposed for hyperloop projects from Elon Musk's The Boring Company and Richard Branson's Virgin Hyperloop One. Theoretically, maglev technology allows for high-speed travel without using as much energy as traditional engine power due to a lack of friction. With a name translating to peace motors, this is a joint venture centered in Seoul. China, Japan and South Korea all use maglev trains today. So fasten your seat belt and wait for the future as these hover car will be as common as your Volkswagen cars and no need to worry about your tyre anymore.Some commercial trains have used magnetic levitation, or "maglev" - which involves electrifying a magnetic field to push or pull vehicles at high speeds - since the 1980s. ![]() It could hypothetically fly at speeds over 342 mph, according to Lazzarini-which would be plenty fast if the idea could actually fly. Instead of relying on a straight-eight engine or electric motors, this fantasy is all hover power and features four smallish turbine engines. ![]() Power for the Spark comes from a 1.4-liter four. It is designed, manufactured, and exported by GM Korea the company formally known as Daewoo. ![]() It is based on an Isotta Fraschini Tipo 8 luxury car from the early 1920s and maybe even a few high-powered vacuum cleaners, too. Well, simply put, the Spark is a South Korean car. Most flying cars look pretty silly, and this concept by Lazzarini Design does too, but it’s also kind of intriguing. Like Volkswagens but dont want to pay the premium they command over Japanese and Korean competitors Patience will pay off. The hubs can rotate to accommodate hovercars coming from different directions. The Hover Car can also drive itself, since it will already be following a pre-determined path. The drivers of the hovercars often use the tunnels as guides on where to fly, but once in a while youll find some flying on a route over open land from one side of the colony settlement to another. Electromagnetism would repel the vehicle from the ground, presumably the same way a mag-lev train operates. In reality, the Hover Car would need electromagnetic strips embedded in the road to function. It was recently presented to the public at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show. The VW Hover Car is one of three concepts to come out of the People’s Car Project the German company company launched in China last year. No definite date related the launch of Hover car has been announced yet by the Volkswagen Company but it is expected that the car will launch by the end of 2020 and no exact price has been announced but the company promised this car to be less expensive than ordinary cars. This dictionary definitions page includes all the possible meanings, example usage and translations of the word HOVERCAR. Will the car of the future look anything like the car of today? According to Volkswagen, it could look like a floating doughnut. The capability of hovering above the ground eliminate the need of the tyre,isn't it a good news now you don't have to worry about changing your will also reduce your fuel consumption and that road bumps. The picture which you saw above was of the hover car or also called flying car.The first ever hover craft was developed by the FORD in the year 1959 and was called levi car,designed to be levitated by magnet. ![]()
