HONDA CEO Releases First $4,999 Flying Car That Changes Everything!

[Music] the first flying car you can buy has landed in the US and by you I of course mean the insanely Rich flying cars might be taking off sooner than you [Music] think Honda CEO toshihiro mibe just announced the release of the company's first flying car that defies everything we never thought was possible the company is not just unveiling a car they're presenting something that seems almost like magic and do you know the craziest part of it it comes with the price of just $4,999 yes it's like a Daydream but this is actually real what

makes these cars so unique and different modular flying vehicle providing a revolutionary solution not only in the field of 2D but also 3D Transportation what does this mean for the future of the automotive World join us in this video as we share all the exciting details about these flying cars the Honda fly flying car that is unlike any other imagine having a car you can drive straight up into the sky this isn't a big roaring jet it is a Sleek fancy car with seats for you and your friends Honda means real business about these flying

cars other companies including those in China are already putting forward their own flying cars Chinese electric vehicle maker xp's flying car has made its first public flight taken to the sky in Dubai but Honda's flying car is totally different from all of it like it really stands out let's get into how Honda made this dream a reality with their years of experience in car manufacturing and even jet building Honda is the only company that has both Federal Aviation Administration certification for the body and engine of an aircraft over the years they have been focusing on

aircraft focusing on how they can come up with advanced technology successfully they have really been Progressive in doing this and now they have stepped into the game of flying cars what makes Honda's flying cars incredible and outstanding in the automotive Market is its amazing capabilities and features and at a very affordable price what are these features keep watching as we get right into it we had a lot of confidence with the design which basically led us to the designs that you're seeing now now let's start with safety that is obviously the first thing one should

consider the car is designed with eight little rotors for taking off and landing and two larger ones for keeping it moving once you're in the air if one rotor has an issue the others take over to ensure you land smoothly and safely every time they even have a unique Hybrid Power setup something that runs on both electricity and gas while other flying cars need to be recharged often Honda's Hybrid Power means you can go much much farther without stopping while other electric flying cars can manage about 62 Mi on a single charge Honda's hybrid design

lets you fly up to 250 Mi the engine's technology is borrowed from their experience in Formula 1 trademark racing high-speed generators from F1 battery and motor technology from its hybrid and electric cars so the power behind the rotors is strong and reliable making sure this car flies fast and efficiently and while it's powerful it's also easy on the environment which aligns with Honda's goal to create a cleaner safer world world where cars don't just move us but actually make life better for everyone Honda didn't stop at just making the car safe and eco-friendly the design

itself is incredible it has a Sleek shape and spacious Windows this will make passengers have a beautiful view from every angle it also has a special place for your luggage so your stuff is safe and secure even when you're up in the air it has room for a pilot and four passengers this flying car is perfect for family trips or for giving friends an experience they'll never forget what makes Honda's flying car stand out even more is that they're not just thinking about today they're thinking about the future Honda sees this as the first step

in bringing us closer to a time when cars flying and otherwise won't just take us to new places but will bring new possibilities they're looking ahead to a time when we might be able to go further than just our cities and towns they're aiming to create vehicles that could even Venture in into outer space One Day by using all the skills they've gained over the years in areas like electrification Robotics and combustion Honda is opening up a world of possibilities some companies from China others from the United States are also racing to get their flying

cars off the ground San Mato based company Olive Aeronautics announced that the Federal Aviation Administration has approved its model a flying car making it the first car approved for use of this nature in the US but Honda's model with its carefully balanced design and robust Hybrid engine sets it apart from other flying cars many of these other flying car Concepts rely solely on battery power which limits their range however Honda's hybrid combines electric power with a small gas turbine to cover greater distances without worrying about charging every hour while flying cars may sound wild today

Honda is working to make them as common as the car in your driveway it's clear they're serious about changing how we think about travel bringing us closer to a future where taking a flight in your own car is no different than starting your car for a grocery run and with that $4,999 price tag it almost seems like a dream right but Honda has found a way to make these flying cars affordable for people everywhere it's as if they want to make the dream of flying not just a luxury for a few but a reality for

everyone this new step forward of cars will let us explore our world in ways we never could before of course Honda is not the only company trying to make flying cars but Honda's history of success and commitment to safety sets it apart they're using all of their expertise from their work with robotics hybrid cars and even their experience with jets to create a car that doesn't just fly but flies with style and confidence but though matter how incredible these flying car detail sound there are also speculations generally about flying cars and these speculations are just

so hard to ignore stay tuned as we delve into it concerning speculations about flying cars flying cars sounds pretty exciting right for a long time people have dreamed about flying cars imagining what it would be like to escape the roads and see the world from above just like a bird but as incredible as this sounds there are also concerning things to consider let let's start with safety safety isn't just about technology and training it's also about people feeling comfortable with the idea for some people the idea of flying cars is scary before you're able to

drive yourself and then you get a license and you get out on the roads and you realize what a terrible idea this would actually be because the vast majority of people can't drive on the ground let alone driving in the sky they worry about accidents or about something falling from the sky this means flying car companies would have to to work hard to gain people's trust and show them that these cars are safe it's one thing for a car to break down on the road but worse if it goes wrong up in the sky one

of the biggest questions is how these cars would actually fly cars are great at driving and planes are great at flying but putting the two together isn't so simple right now flying cars like that of Honda as mentioned earlier use rotors that help lift the car into the air for these rotors to work they need a lot of power but here's where the challenge comes in flying cars would need super strong batteries or something similar to give them enough energy batteries need to last a long time to make flying cars practical after all we don't

want to be worrying about our car losing power while we're up in the sky but with our current technology batteries are only just getting powerful enough for regular electric cars making batteries that are light last a long time and can lift a car into the sky is not a simple thing there's also the risk associated with Pilots or drivers while most people can drive a car on the road with ease flying involves sailing through three-dimensional space avoiding both buildings and other flying vehicles training requirements for operators of flying cars would likely need to be more

strict than those for road vehicles and there would need to be guidelines for emergencies this level of training could limit the number of buyers who are interested in purchasing the car and there's another issue to think about the rules cars on the road follow rules like stopping at red lights and driving on the right side flying cars would need their own set of rules and they'd probably be a lot more complex than regular driving rules Aviation authorities which are the people in charge of making sure everything in the sky is safe the aviation system is

governed by regulations just like the rules for driving on a road regulations unnecessary would have to come up with these new rules this would mean fig figuring out things like where flying cars can go how high they can fly and who gets to use them managing the airspace for flying cars is another issue the current air traffic system is designed to handle a manageable number of planes with specific flight paths destinations and regulations if hundreds or thousands of flying cars took to the air the demand on Air Traffic Control Systems would multiply badly imagine the

risks associated with congestion in the sky where flying cars would share space with planes helicopters and drones this eventually happening without a robust management system would be very chaotic and dangerous the need for an organized airspace would mean creating new communication protocols and possibly even technology that allows flying cars to automatically avoid each other that will be like a smart driving system in the air it's not even about individual concerns or new set rules that will come in place companies and our en environment are to be considered as well what would likely happen you should

know all about it sight tight as we share more unhealthy competition and environmental concerns about flying cars competition between companies trying to produce more of these flying cars has turned into something else each company has its unique approach be it hybrid engines vertical takeoff and Landing technology or specialized designs for urban environments while competition usually drives Innovation it can also lead to shortcuts in the name of speed and profit some companies might rush their product to Market to get ahead and will end up neglecting safety standards thorough testing or environmental considerations and again the commercialization

of flying cars could result in monopolies or exclusive Partnerships where only certain companies control large portions of the market pollution is another inevitable concern and not just in ter terms of carbon emissions even electric powered flying cars which are heralded as cleaner come with environmental baggage batteries involve in the extraction of Rare Minerals harms ecosystems and creates hazardous waste once these batteries reach the end of their lifespan disposal or recycling becomes an issue especially considering the high volume of batteries required to power flying vehicles the amount of energy needed to charge and maintain an entire

fleet of flying cars cars could also strain resources and it will end up suppressing the environmental benefits that they aim to provide also producing and maintaining flying cars could lead to material waste if not managed carefully flying cars will contribute to pollution badly flying cars will require a whole new set of skills unlike driving flying demands a different level of awareness including altitude weather conditions air space and emergency procedures to enure safety serious training programs will be necessary which will be timec consuming especially for a busy family man or woman and might even be costly

and not to forget the maintenance unlike road vehicles flying cars would need regular and thorough maintenance to ensure all parts are functioning properly in the air even a small technical problem can have catastrophic consequences as it's much harder to make an emergency landing compared to pulling over in a regular car the the cost of these maintenance will also make people reconsider purchasing these flying cars all these challenges are hard to ignore but the thought of owning a flying car is really exciting each problem from battery life air traffic noise safety or cost is basically like

a puzzle that Engineers development team and governments are working to solve as they overcome all these hurdles flying cars especially the outstanding ones like the one produced by Honda will change the world in ways we can barely imagine okay guys that's a wrap for flying cars for this reason alone many companies and designers have made proposals on how the Tesla semi can be transformed into a motor home removable solar panels would be added to make it better helping the vehicle to be more sustainable it would have the same battery pack as the standard semi but

would be charged more regularly thanks to the solar panels at work whenever the vehicle stops if this happens the concept would give a more quiet and smoother travel experience compared to traditional motor homes that run on diesel it would revolutionize road travel in the long run and many people are in for it but there's more as stated earlier this concept motor home would outclass the Tesla semi in design and functionality the Tesla semi is an all- electric Class 8 heavy duty truck is created to address a vehicle segment that accounts for 18% of all vehicle

emissions in the country semi- trcks but while this is to be expected a more detailed analysis tells us just how impressive this feat alone is for context the Tesla semi has a full load capacity of over 880,000 lb over a distance of 500 Mi the typical load of a motor home is about 40,000 lb and without the extra weight associated with the base semi the range would surpass 600 Mi depending on weather conditions and the design of the finished product with half the carrying capacity of the base semi the motor home would No Doubt last

much longer on the road designers hope that the vehicle will be more streamlined to reduce air resistance and save more energy so the vehicle can reach even higher ranges of over 800 miles it would have removable solar panels by design made to help the Cyber truck harness solar energy while parked or not in use this would be a great asset for campers and travelers as the solar panels would ensure that there would be more energy to use without needing to rely on charging stations living conditions would be much better than anything expected in traditional motor

homes with a spacious kitchen bathroom and Lounge designed to prioritize comfort with efficiency they plan to do this without compromise transforming the semi cab and trailer into an Ideal Home anyone can put up with to meet this standard several appliances would be needed and all of them would be powered by the same large battery that powers the drivetrain things like air conditioning heating entertainment systems and kitchen appliances would be used in this vehicle and with all of them relying on the large battery there would be little need for external generators there would be an electric

motor that would keep the Cyber home as quiet as possible which would make Travelers feel at home on the Fly adding to that the smooth acceleration and driving mechanics of an automated Tesla we have a much more comfortable experience than what everyone is used to it means that we can really shove a lot of current in a very very small place so you know for those that have worked uh and charged their cars on a V3 supercharger and the ca's nice and you know maneuverable it's the same thing here but now we're just shoving a

megawatt through it this new and improved Tesla semi would have the most advanced driver assistance Technologies including the famous autopilot feature which offers to drive the vehicle over long distances without needing any input from the driver navigating highways and rough planes would be a breeze giving the driver the chance to enjoy the journey without focusing on driving driving this of course would be a much more sustainable option compared to diesel vehicles there would be zero tailpipe emissions providing a much cleaner alternative with reduced after effects on the environment this motor home would have advanced charging

capabilities similar to other Tesla vehicles but knowing the company's Tendencies to go behind expectations don't be surprised if things get better than this to keep up with the other products from Tesla's catalog it would no doubt be able to do a lot of things typical Teslas do and that included fast charging given the current Trend with the company's products the motor home should be compatible with Tesla's supercharger Network known to achieve over 70% charge in about 30 minutes it would also work with their special wall connectors that can be installed in homes as of today

they can charge the semis battery with up to 44 M of range per hour this gives a full charge overnight convenient enough to align with long trips that involve stopping at various places to rest at night the options become more flexible with the use of a mobile connector a tool capable of providing up to 30 m of range per hour when connected to a standard outlet the inbuilt solar panels of this machine would generate more power and with Tesla power wall built in there would be a lot of energy stored from the solar panels This

would ensure there is always a backup source of energy at all times especially in remote locations it is often said that home is where the heart is here it is we've got the model y over here and you can see we're charging it right now with the w connector on this side of the garage you can find the Tesla mobile connector that's connected to the 110 outlet with this in mind the motor home would most likely come with many options for customization for a company known for thinking ahead figuring this out shouldn't be difficult nobody

would call it home if it doesn't rhyme with their tastes for this reason the motor home would allow for different living arrangements depending on what the user wants from it there would be options for extra sleeping space entertainment areas and more space for work this wide array of options would ensure that the product appeals to a wide range of people from close-knit families to introverted Nomads there would be a chance for everyone to enjoy feeling at home in the vehicle but with all these features powered by a huge battery relying most mostly on solar energy

comes a huge problem this huge problem as many can tell is heat for a company known for wrestling with thermal issues for almost a decade how are they going to turn things around this time well this is where it gets interesting a cure for Road anxiety for about a decade Tesla has struggled with thermal management issues especially during its early years of production most of the issues had to do with keeping their cars cool enough while working as intended unlike mobile phones and PCs premium cars are not expected to throttle when overheating doing so would

lead to many accidents on the road the company has had to wrestle with different methods of maintaining full operations while keeping the battery and other important components cool at all times but it seemed things were only getting out of hand the years from 2012 to 2015 were the most difficult for Tesla with several reports of batteries growing weaker in very short amounts of time especially in colder climates while many thought overheating was the only cause of battery degradation Tesla drivers learned the hard way about how cold weather impacts their battery life this was the scene

this morning at a charging station near 95th in Western in Evergreen Park drivers say some of the stations weren't working and those that were were taking a lot longer to charge too many customers learned the hard way that both extreme temperatures caused the same problem as a result batteries aged faster faster than normal and the consequences were staggering for a better perspective here is a great example imagine if you went on a long trip to a different state over 4 hours away from home this travel required going through Barren roads and remote places in the

middle of nowhere you left home with a full battery expected to last for at least 6 hours based on promises given by the manufacturer but after just 2 hours of driving in the middle of nowhere the battery suddenly gives up there you are stranded at a remote place with horrible Network reception you can't call anybody and the nearest charging station for the car is at least an hour's drive away that of course would be very frustrating this was the problem many customers wrestled with leading to what some would call range anxiety a term used to

describe how several Tesla owners struggled with predicting how long their batteries would last when planning for long Journeys in remote areas since the vehicles cannot throttle on the road Tesla's subsequent software updates focused on other means of managing heat knowing that overheating was a factor that aged the battery much faster they resorted to reducing the charging speed whenever the car got very warm as we all know fast charging increases temperature so a good way of managing that problem was to reduce charging speeds when many crucial parts of the car become hot while this had a

positive effect in keeping batteries functioning for much longer many many customers complained that such measures contradicted the reasons why they bought the product in the first place things would sometimes get so bad that there were significant charging errors and glitches as the product was built initially for fast charging at all times this brought in a huge backlash from many fans customers and reviewers but it only got worse from there oh we got a bunch of dead robots out here dead robots dead Teslas packed the parking lot at this Tesla Supercharger station in Oakbrook perhaps 2019

was the worst year for Tesla in this regard with model S Vehicles getting caught on fire as their batteries exploded one of these incidents occurred on April 1st 2019 when a Model S caught fire while parked in a garage in Shanghai what made it most frightening was that the footage showed the car bursting into flames on its own with nothing external causing it this was on the heels of another incident that had occurred on February 8th of that same year when another Tesla S unit exploded in a garage this time in Pittsburgh USA Tesla says

that it has sent a team to investigate a video that appears to show the explosion of one of its cars parked in a garage in China with the growing bad press the company had to deal with many thought there would be no reported indents anytime soon but it was barely a month after the Shanghai incident when another Model S exploded at a local parking lot in Hong Kong at this point things were becoming concerning even though these were a few terminal cases among millions for each of these incidents Tesla went hard at work to examine

the possible causes and released updates to eliminate the issue following an official statement released on their official website the next few years were less eventful it seemed like the company had eliminated the problem for good but on September 15th 2024 another Tesla vehicle caught fire while charging at a supercharging station in Pennsylvania the firemen had a hard time with this one as it took over 3 hours to put out the fire completely thanks to the special fires from the batteries known for reigniting multiple times before giving out this caused many people to think that the

issues only get worse whenever Tesla promises new technologies in their products but let's assume that all the heat issues have been fixed completely there are other reasons to doubt the validity of this product particularly the pricing if the rumors are true then this new product would launch at less than $90,000 considering how much this machine can do would they launch it at such a low price how would they cut costs to make it work let's find out so much for so cheap for a product that promises so much $90,000 sounds so little to make up

for it for a better perspective classic budget motor homes cost from 50 to $770,000 often focusing only on what the person needs without without adding any advanced looks and features taking a step up the ladder would range from $100,000 to $200,000 as mid-range motor homes have more living space with better materials for the kitchens and bathrooms but let's assume you want to go pro with features that sit roughly with features often associated with Tesla's most popular products the cheapest in this class would cost at least $250,000 to over half a million as these Luxury Motor

Homes give High quality materials and Advanced Technologies but here is the funny part most of them don't come with the futuristic Technologies this vehicle promises to come with simple logic dictates that a Tesla cyber home would cost a bit more than luxurious motor homes as it has both what they usually offer and very much more this makes the rumored $90,000 price too good to be true Advanced features like smartphone integration solar harvesting and smart home integration make this cyber home stand out from budget and standard motor homes putting it on par with the most expensive

motor homes sold on the market keep in mind that eco-friendly solutions to most carbon emitting problems usually cost a lot of money and nothing in the leaked reports apart from the strange pricing indicates that this cyber home is an exception also keep in mind that the Tesla brand at this point is well known for putting out premium products at a premium price some something that would be odd if Tesla decides to produce so much for so cheap but if these rumors are true as well then it's safe to say that Tesla would employ several cost

cutting measures that prioritize what it promised over meaningless premium factors how are they going to do this you ask let's investigate to pull this off Tesla would have to cut Corners in many ways but most importantly the Chinese gigafactory would take the Bold risk of producing the motor home at a much larger larger scale than they have for previous vehicles and products this has to be done to leverage economies of scale as manufacturing products in smaller batches would cost more money in the long run also instead of going for parts specifically made for the new

model they could use Technologies from existing models that are performing very well like the model 3 and the semi this would not only save cost but also time making the process less complicated overall secondly test would have to go for an easily customizable design this means that many parts would be easily changed to suit the driver's needs an approach that would not only limit the time of production but the money needed to keep things going they might have to keep the number of configurations within limits as making the vehicle too customizable would only make things

more expensive thirdly even though the Chinese gigafactory is known for leveraging more Technologies geared towards getting things done in a short amount of time they would have to think of more efficient ways that would reduce production costs with an automated estimate of 95% they would still have to rely even more on robotic manufacturing to improve consistency while reducing cost now let's talk about the materials they would need to build up this machine here is how they will do it now of course they won't have to build everything from the ground up after all this cyber

home is based on the already existing Tesla semi all the they would have to do is make use of Cheaper materials that are still durable like aluminum and advanced composits this would not only require less money but would reduce the energy consumption required for production of course the Chinese Factory won't have to do everything on its own as they could Outsource certain tasks to smaller trusted factories outside Tesla that are willing to produce the cheap materials at very affordable prices these prices would most likely be cheaper than what Tesla would spend while using their Factory

as the smaller companies would use much less power and resources to produce the materials than the large gigafactory forming these strategic Partnerships with smaller factories would help both companies in many ways forming a long-lasting symbiotic relationship between both parties but let's assume Tesla decides to do things on their own would they still be able to sell at such a cheap price well they could Source materials locally to reduce transport ation costs while committing to protecting the environment while the addition of solar panels adds to the cost they would be great investments in the long run

Tesla could use this to their advantage as they would no longer need to use the same large battery used to operate the semi a smaller battery could be built in without compromising on a lot of things as the solar panels would always be at work to keep it charged at all times always generating power on the go add this to Tesla's amazing Amazing Power wall technology and we have a more effective way of managing energy than just having a large battery on top of that Tesla would have to adopt an online sales model to make

this work this means they would be selling their products directly to customers through Tesla's online platforms there will be no dealerships no middlemen and no added costs just the company delivering their products directly to customers at a much cheaper price things would be less complicated improving customer services by a long shot but even with these cut Corners it still seems unlikely that Tesla would be able to sell their products at such a low price perhaps they have another Ace up their sleeve deciding to sell the product at a loss while making huge profits from other

means it is possible after all other corporations like Sony and Microsoft use this strategy through their video game consoles for example the Xbox 360 PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation 5 all sold at a loss to make the product more accessible to everyone the Xbox 360 released in 2005 sold at a loss for 4 years and finally turned a huge profit by the fifth year the PlayStation 4 in 2013 went harder by making its product up to $100 cheaper than the competition thanks to this decision their console turned to profit from the very start as many

customers used their spare money to buy lots of games that made up for the loss the PlayStation 5 followed the same strategy in 2020 selling millions of units while making more money from their huge catalog of software maybe Tesla has this type of strategy in mind selling their cyber home very cheap while turning a profit through other services aimed at making the product even more enjoyable than anything promised before to make this work the company would have to think of many things the customers would want along with their cyber home things that would make the

experience much richer than anticipated we can only hope Tesla doesn't make the wrong decision by stripping off the things that were rumored to come with the product and putting them behind a pay wall that of course would be a recipe for disaster but for now it is important to note that this product is still in the concept stages while the alleged leaks and reports are exciting to think about nothing has been officially confirmed by Tesla until that happens we just just have to keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best so what do you

think are the reports true would Tesla be able to pull this off let us know in the comments down below if you enjoyed the video make sure you like share and subscribe also click the next video shown on your screen you will enjoy it
