The Neva AirQuadOne is the worlds first flying quad.

This revolutionary vehicle is consumers' best chance at a viable flying car as it doesn't require any groundbreaking technology for its production. Riders straddle the all-electric vehicle like a bike and electric turbofans propel the users vertically into the air. With a range of 25 miles, the Neva AirQuadOne is a great solution for everyday commuters. A rechargeable battery pack lets users recharge the quad on the go. The vehicle is expected to weigh 500 kg and can carry a payload of up to 100 kg. The Neva AirQuadOne is inherently safe to use as it [doesn't contain any uncaged blades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mostavio-mx1).

Creators of the Neva AirQuadOne are working to gain light aircraft certification for the flying quad in the US and Europe.
