Chinese EV maker BYD is partnering with drone manufacturer DJI to make science fiction Blade Runner-style movie magic real: a drone that launches from the roof of your car while driving. It even has gull-wing-style doors that open the drone launch pad for take-off. It’s now available in mainland China for 16,000 yuan, or about $2,200 USD.
Press the launch button from the car’s large touchscreen, and two panels slide up and to the side, revealing a roof-mounted drone launching platform that can be used while the car in in motion, though likely only at slower speeds.
