Drive and fly in car

A two-seat flung car was created by Cardozo. The car is designed with the powered 1000cc, four cylinder, 140hp, and ethanol burning engine. It has an automatic continuously variable transmission gear box. It can travel 0-60 mph in 45 seconds in roadways and a speed of 110 mph in airways. To change the transmission from the road mode a switch is turned on which powers the wheels and the fan at the rear. This process takes three minutes to complete.

The car take off at the speed of 35 mph. The wing get a lift from the fan thrust propels in the front. Foot pedals attached to parafoil move the cables to direct the flight path. Maximum speed is obtained 2000 to 3000 feet. The maximum altitude that can be reached is 15,000 ft. ballistic parachute which is roof mounted is provided in the car for emergency.

Devices like lifeboat are going to be attached to the car to prevent it from sinking in the water it goes down over the water.

A marvelous car to enjoy the journey in land as well as in the air.
