The PAL-V ONE is an autogyro with top speed of 180 km/h (112 mph) on land and in air, is almost here!
At 950kg (2094lb) PAL-V ONE features two seats, a foldable pusher propeller providing forward thrust and a free-spinning rotor providing lift. Thanks to the twin boom-mounted tailfins the vehicle is quite stable in all directions. The car is powered with a 160 kW flight certified gasoline engine.
On the ground, the propeller and rotor are stopped and you travel on three wheels. On turns, PAL-V leans like a motorcycle.
It has been announced that this flying car is going into production, with a limited edition run of 45-units. These will cost at €500,000 with first deliveries happening in 2016-2017.
