Porsche- the German carmaker is partnering with the aerospace giant Boeing to build a flying car, which is going to be a speedy and luxurious way the ultra-rich people to fly above frustrated peasants stuck in traffic-choked cities.

In a press release, Detlev von Platen, Porsche executive, said,

Meanwhile, Steve Nordlund, Boeing NeXt executive said that the partnership between Boeing and Porsche will bring about an opportunity to work together with a leading automotive brand to look into the development of a vehicle for premium urban air mobility. With this being a premium service, it is not going to be a vehicle for average people.

Companies who are planning on creating an electric flying taxies network have been boosting their credulity by saying that it will be possible for people with different income levels to purchase tickets. However, when taking into accounts all the costs needed to build an infrastructure for the takeoff and landing of the aircraft which includes charging stations and landing pads, it seems pretty clear that only the very wealthy can afford this.

But Boeing and Porsche aren’t the first companies to venture into the market for elusive flying cars.

Just recently, Kitty Hawk- a flying car startup introduced its third vertical takeoff and landing aircraft with a 100-mile range. Earlier this year, Volocopter- the German flying car manufacturer also revealed its air taxi while it flew over a German city.
