Zeva Zero could become the world's first flying saucer. Vehicle companies are investing in research on flying cars and their likelihood in the near future, most of which resemble a familiar aircraft-car hybrid. This flying vehicle looks more like the flying alien saucers of childhood memories.
It takes queues from the helicopter's vertical flight pattern. A test flight reveals its seamless vertical takeoff and landing capabilities. Once landed, the Zeva Zero can "dock" against walls of buildings with a system called the SkyDock, as the startup company explains. The single-passenger flying vehicle aims to create an eco-friendly personal air travel experience. It uses zero0emission electric motors to drive its propellers. However, the single-passenger aspect limits users from ride-sharing.
