Australian-based brand Alauda Aeronautics unveils the new Airspeeder MK4 vehicle which is a one-person electric vehicle that has take-off and landing known as eVTOL. The design allows the vehicle to go extremely fast, going up to 225 mph, and has a distance range of 180 miles.
It has a 1,000 kW Thunderstrike Hydrogen Turbogenerator that is connected to electric motors on the aforementioned eVTOL wings that fuel the vehicle. It also allows hydrogen to be the fuel instead of traditional options. When the aircraft is unscrewed, it weighs 2,095 pounds and is able to reach its top speed as fast as 30 seconds. It also uses a gimbaled thrust system that has artificial intelligence that adjusts the four-rotor pairs.
