Uber is a transportation company that operates in about 633 cities around the world. Passengers connect to uber drivers with the help of smartphone apps. The company has recently shared details of a flying car that can help people in the future travel immediately to other cities.
Uber will reveal new concept pictures at its second elevate summit which will focus on its upcoming flying car.
According to the concept images, there are about to be four propellers around the aircraft that will help it to take off from the ground. The car will move forward with the help of a single rotor on its tail.
Passenger seats will be in the middle of the aircraft. There will be a maximum of four pilots that will transport the passengers to their desired destinations. Uber is employing its latest electric vertical take-off and landing vehicles common reference models, or eCRM.
In an interview, Uber stated that “The eCRM design is pedestrian friendly, as the propeller blades are as high as possible, leaving ample room for individuals to board and DE-plane without having to duck. The high placement of the wings allow for shaded entry into the cabin, shielding riders from light rain as they board. Finally, a point of entry into the eCRMs is limited to one side, simplifying ground crew operations and reducing confusion for riders when they approach their e VTOL vehicle.”
For the meantime, the car is to have a speed between 150 to 200 miles per hour. It can fly between 1000 to 2000 feet and can last for up to 60 miles before its battery needs to be charged again. Its battery can be recharged in only five minutes, and the car can be refueled at the rooftop sky-ports. These sky-ports will be designed in such a way as to accommodate 200 liftoffs and landings every hour.
Uber has been working on this flying car technique for quite a while. According to the company, taking the advanced drone technology and the urban transportation to air which isn't easy for the travelers to overcome is the reasonable solution.
Uber wants its service to be known as Uber air, a drone-based transport system which will not require pilots and will move to an autonomous system in the future. According to Uber, the flying car will be launched by 2020, and it will fly over Dubai, Dallas, and LA.

A basic recline indicator is a line or other indicator on the car seat that is positioned level to the ground which indicates the seat is in the correct recline position. This type indicator may not be that precise.Car Care Guide
