Uber and Hyundai introduced a flying taxi at CES. It's an electric winged vertical takeoff and landing plane with rotating wings. The flying car is designed for a cruising speed up to 180 miles/hr (290 km/hr), a cruising altitude of around 1,000-2,000 feet (300 - 600 mt) above ground, and to fly trips up to 60 miles (100 km).
It's all electric and carries four people, "designed to take off vertically, transition to wing-borne lift in cruise, and then transition back to vertical flight to land." It will eventually be autonomous.
