The idea seems to have three elements, a flying electric taxi with several propellers which does seem a little backward. Hasn’t the future got beyond such ancient technology?

It seems like, you jump into a pod that looks like a castoff from one of Elon Musk’s tunnel projects and is five minutes late. This will land you to a hub with a Skyport on top, and there, you’ll meet your flying taxi.

Another pod will take you to your destination.

Hyundai explained: “The Hyundai vehicle will be piloted initially, but over time they will become autonomous.” From singular to plural in but a few words.

Hyundai said its decision to develop the S-A1 is part of its broader goal of becoming a “smart mobility solution provider.”

“Our vision of Urban Air Mobility will transform the concept of urban transportation,” said Jaiwon Shin, executive vice president and head of Hyundai’s Urban Air Mobility Division, or UAM. “We expect UAM to vitalize urban communities and provide more quality time to people. We are confident that Uber Elevate is the right partner to make this innovative product readily available to as many customers as possible.”

“We believe Hyundai has the potential to build Uber Air vehicles at rates unseen in the current aerospace industry, producing high quality, reliable aircraft at high volumes to drive down passenger costs per trip.” Eric Allison, head of Uber Elevate, said in a statement.

The Uberdai has a range of 60 miles only, and recharging takes 5 to 7 minutes. Imagine all the be podded customers getting just as annoyed as they do now when their train is late.
