According to the official website, this car is priced at US$300,000, or about RMB 2.17 million, and has received 3,300 orders and will be delivered to the first batch by the end of the year.

In terms of styling, the Model A prototype is indeed very different from the common flying cars. It retains the original appearance of the car, has four wheels, is black all over, has no exposed propellers, and can be lifted vertically.

According to Alef's test video, Model A was driving and taking off on a public street in California, USA. The altitude from the ground was visually lower than 5 meters. Then it landed around 3 meters in front of the obstacle car and continued driving, but during the takeoff and landing stages, poor balance performance.

It is reported that when the car is fully charged, it can fly up to 177 kilometers horizontally and travel up to 322 kilometers on the ground, and can deal with emergencies. For example, a truck blocked the expressway after an accident, so that it can start the flight mode and cross the flight modeThe truck then landed and continued to move forward without delaying the trip.

Interestingly, since Musk's SpaceX is also an investor in this company, some netizens also jokingly call Model A "Musk's new car."

However, Musk himself is very repulsive of flying cars, saying that it is very noise, wind impact, and fall risk, which can make people feel very uneasy, especially in densely populated areas.

"It's a hassle if the parts fall or hit the building. In addition, in bad weather, flight traffic is often out of service. He believes there are no such problems in underground tunnels compared to those in the lower ground."
