The world's first flying car builds an airport

Increasing numbers of companies investing in flying cars, including big players like Boeing and Porsche. In this context, the British city of Coventry is preparing to host the world's first flying cars. British start-up Urban Air Port is building a futuristic airport in partnership with Hyundai Motors. The airport is planned to open in November.

An airport for flying cars and "drones" will be built in Coventry, England. The project, which aims to show how air taxis will work in city centers, is expected to be implemented towards the end of this year.

BRITISH START-UP AND HYUNDAI PARTNERSHIP

British start-up Urban-Air Port has partnered with South Korean automotive giant Hyundai Motors to develop the infrastructure required for flying cars to take to the skies.

The airport, which is expected to open to visitors in November and called Urban Air Port, will include flying cars as well as drones carrying passengers and vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicles.

1.2 MILLION STERLIN FUNDS

Urban-Air Port, however, was chosen by a government program aimed at developing new zero-emission aircraft and received a £ 1.2 million grant to help fund the airport's temporary installation in downtown Coventry.

Ricky Sandhu, founder and chairman of the board of directors of Urban Air-Port, said in a statement, "With the support of the British government and Hyundai Motor Group, we will undertake the construction of the first fully functional airport in the world. While flying car technology is progressing, we cannot afford to lack infrastructure. you can not ride "he said.
