Remember when we all thought we’d have flying cars by the year 2000? Well, Alef finally caught up with our childhood daydreams and said, “Hold my futuristic beverage.” Their all-electric Model A looks like something Batman would casually drive to brunch in, but it actually flies. Vertically. Like the badass piece of machinery it is.
It handles the road like a real car, but when traffic rears its ugly head, it lifts off and zips over the chaos. No traffic and no honking; just you, the clouds, and possibly a seriously confused flock of pigeons. With one foot in the EV world and the other in full-blown sci-fi, this vehicle makes rush hour look like a thing of the past (if you’ve got the money to afford it).
Sure, it costs a fortune (AU$300,000 big ones to be exact), but can you really put a price on feeling like a superhero on your morning commute?
