Audi AG and Airbus SE signed a letter of intent with various German government authorities that would allow the partners to test their Pop.Up Next flying car concept in Ingolstadt.
The partners offered no other details about their multi-modal project.
The ground and air portions of the system are designed to operate autonomously as a self-driving/flying taxi. The system would calculate the fastest air/road route to a destination. When appropriate, the capsule would separate from the chassis and be picked up by the quadcopter drone.
