Japanese Company Unveils a hoverbike with 100 Kmph Top Speed

ALI Technologies, a Japanese company, has introduced Flying Bike. This flying bike, which shows you the view of the future at the first glimpse, can fly at a speed of about 100 kilometers per hour. The video of the test flight of this hoverbike named XTURISMO has also been shared. The company’s CEO says that currently this hoverbike will not be allowed to fly over traffic-clogged roads in Japan, but it can be used by rescue teams to get to difficult places in emergency incidents.

ALI Technologies also did a short test flight of the XTURISMO at a race track near Mount Fuji, where the hoverbike was shown flying slightly above the ground. You can watch this video below.

Developed by A.L.I. Technologies, the “hoverbike,” as the company describes it, weighs 300 kg and is capable of carrying a single rider. According to the company, it can travel at its top speed for up to 40 minutes.

A.L.I., which is backed by Kyocera and Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance Venture Capital, started taking orders for the bike the same day it was unveiled and plans to deliver the limited-edition run of 200 vehicles to customers by the first half of next year. The price is set at 77.7 million yen ($682,000).

Powered primarily by an internal combustion engine, Xturismo relies on two main propellers to stay aloft. The bike is equipped with the same altitude control technology A.L.I. uses in its drone products, allowing it to glide smoothly through the air.

“We would like to propose a new lifestyle with this floating vehicle,” CEO Daisuke Katano said at the unveiling ceremony.

A.L.I.’s four-year achievement comes as the race to sell flying motorcycles heats up around the world. U.S.-based JetPack Aviation recently said it had succeeded in a flight test of a prototype of the Speeder, reportedly setting itself on course for a launch as early as 2023. Pre-orders start at $380,000. French startup Lazareth is also developing a flying motorcycle.
