Volvo Announces Major Step Towards Mass-Producing Flying Cars

The Chinese company behind Volvo, Geely, has just bought one of the world's leading flying car start-ups, Terrafugia. The start-up's "Transition" is widely seen as one of the most exciting flying car prototypes currently in development, with a cruising range of 400 miles and a top speed of 100 mph. Perhaps most excitingly for Geely, though, is that the Terrafugia "Transition" is one of the only hybrid vehicles that has been approved by the General Aviation Administration, which allows the car to be certified as a Light Sport Aircraft.
