General Motors shared some futuristic concept vehicles,cerita lucah 2020 including a sleek Cadillac passenger drone, on Tuesday in a classic CES move.
As part of its Cadillac Halo portfolio, a shiny, silver and black self-driving shuttle, and a matching passenger drone were introduced. Both are just ideas with no production plans — yet.
The VTOL flying car (that's the term used for vertical take-off and landing vehicles or passenger drones) is GM's first design in aerial mobility. It's an idea for personal air travel that doesn't require a trip to the airport.
"It's a concept for when time is of the essence," GM's Michael Simcoe said at the event.
