If someone offered you a FLYING Ferrari and you turned it down, that would classify you as clinically insane. After seeing the [Ferrari X-Racer concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vita-nova) designed by Vincent Montreuil, I highly doubt it would get rejected all that much. This [futuristic beast](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aston-martin-valiant) is designed to race above the track (where Montreuil believes the races will occur one day). Some may call it a wacky concept, however, I’d like to see Speed Racer stand up next to the Ferrari X-Racer. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 86% | Activity: 75% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Flying Vehicles:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced technology for flying vehicles in the automotive industry. - **Future Racing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design innovative racing experiences for futuristic vehicles in the sports and entertainment industry. - **Alternative Transportation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create sustainable and efficient forms of transportation in the automotive industry. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Automotive:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate aerial capabilities into conventional car designs, revolutionizing personal transportation. - **Sports and Entertainment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create new racing categories and events featuring flying vehicles, captivating audiences and attracting sponsors. - **Aerospace:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced aerial technologies for racing purposes, pushing the boundaries of aerospace engineering. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Retro Sci-Fi-Inspired Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-12cilindri.md) - [Stealth Racer Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lamborghini-f1-concept.md) - [Game-Exclusive Concept Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gran-turismo-7.md) - [Video Game-Like Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milano-vision-gt.md) - [Reimagined Road-Legal Supercars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roadlegal-supercar.md) - [Italian Sports Car-Branded Chargers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ferrari-ev-charger.md) - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Superbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/akiraducati-superbike.md) - [Sleek Reimagined Racing Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porsche-99x.md) - [Sports Car-Inspired Luxury Superyachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gran-turismo-mediterranea.md)
