The AirCar transforms from road vehicle to aircraft in under two minutes, turning decades of sci-fi promises into certified reality. After 30 years of engineering by Slovak inventor Stefan Klein, this hybrid machine just completed over 170 flight hours and 500 takeoffs, proving that flying cars work-they’re just not what The Jetsons promised.
Three decades of development deliver the first certified roadable aircraft with automatic transformation.
Klein Vision’s AirCar 2 represents serious aerospace engineering disguised as automotive fantasy. The 1,764-pound vehicle uses a 280-horsepower engine (upgraded from earlier 140-160 hp versions) to reach 124 mph on roads and 155 mph in flight. Wings extend automatically, spoilers retract, and the transformation happens faster than most people can parallel park.
This isn’t some garage project-it’s the first fixed-wing flying car to earn official airworthiness certification from Slovakia’s transport authority after passing EASA-compatible safety tests. The certification milestone, achieved in January 2022, sets Klein’s creation apart from competitors still chasing regulatory approval.
