This car is Capable of taking off vertically and flying completely on its own, this street-legal flying car won't require a pilot's license to operate.

Terrafugia had earlier released images of its next-generation flying car, the TF-X which can be driven on roads as well.

Capable of taking off vertically and flying completely on its own, this street-legal flying car won't require a pilot's license to operate, the New York Daily News reported.

With a flying range of 500 miles, once airborne, the two propellors fold back and propulsion is handled by an engine mounted behind the cockpit.
Everything from take-off, to flying, and eventual touch-down at your chosen destination will be handled automatically by the Terrafugia (pronounced: Terra-foo-gee-ah) TF-X flying car.

Terrafugia says the TF-X is a plug-in hybrid. Electric motors handle road driving, and assist during takeoff and landing.
The company claims that its road-legal and highly automated flying car could be on the road (and in the air) within 8-12 years.

The TF-X's vast array of sensors and GPS monitors make flying to a destination as simple as punching in an address in today's satellite-navigation devices. (With inputs from ANI)
