The resounding issue for many electric vehicle drivers is range anxiety, so the conceptual 'Volt' drone has been created to offer them a way to drive without feeling restricted. Accessible via an app, the drone works as part of a service that would allow drivers to simply request a recharge when they're driving in a remote area where a traditional charging station isn't accessible. This ensures drivers can go further and drive without restriction, which effectively puts an end to range anxiety for modern commuters.
The conceptual 'Volt' drone is the design work of Inyeop Baek and features a sleek aesthetic that can effectively fly anywhere required before landing on the incorporated legs to provide a charging functionality.
