The patent picture shows an aircraft with vertical take-off and landing function, called VTOL. We can also see that there are four large propellers, two of which provide upward and downward thrust. There are two larger fans at the back, each of which can be aimed downward to help the flying car land on the ground.
Basically, with the help of these four propellers, VTOL can go straight up, but it won't fly like a helicopter. Please note that the shutters will close to close the front propeller. This will produce a completely flat wing, just like an airplane. But unlike airplanes or helicopters, VTOL will be autonomous. No driving or driving skills are required. However, Porsche can "give people normal control, as long as they have sufficient qualifications". Like the new Porsche Taycan, VTOL is electric.
The ultimate goal is to build a flying taxi. Detlev von Platen, a member of Porsche's executive board, said: "Porsche hopes to expand its scope as a sports car manufacturer by becoming a leading brand of high-end travel. In the long run, this may mean entering the third dimension of travel. October sales and marketing. " We are integrating the advantages of two leading global companies to cope with potential key market areas in the future. "
