There have been a number of previous test flights, but they were all conducted via remotecontrol and no human pilot on-board.
該公司之前已進(jìn)行過數(shù)次試飛,但都是通過遙控進(jìn)行,無人駕駛。
According to a report in The Asahi Shimbun, SkyDrive says the car could be ready for a limitedretail release as early as 2023, and mass production by 2026.
據(jù)《朝日新聞》報(bào)道,該公司表示,這款車最早將于2023年開始限量出售,2026年開始量產(chǎn)。
SkyDrive was founded by former engineers from Toyota and they intend their vehicle to be "the world's smallest flying car".

該公司表示,不會(huì)透露更多有關(guān)試飛的目前進(jìn)展,但表示一切順利,可以繼續(xù)進(jìn)行。
While concept renders of the flying car present a glossy and slim cabin with four horizontaldrone-style propellers at each corner, the testing vehicle looks more like a go kart.
雖然按照概念描述,飛行汽車有光滑細(xì)長的機(jī)艙,四個(gè)角上還各有一個(gè)水平的無人機(jī)風(fēng)格的螺旋槳,但測試車輛看起來更像一輛卡丁車。
The prototype is around five feet tall thanks to the roll bar and a little less than 12 feet longand 12 feet wide.
由于有翻車保護(hù)桿,原型機(jī)大約5英尺高(約合1.5米),不到12英尺長,12英尺寬。

該公司還認(rèn)為,在搜救任務(wù)中,以及在常規(guī)基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施無法使用的緊急情況下,飛行交通工具可能會(huì)有所幫助。
