Two of the airlines collide during the rehearsal of the air exhibition in China

“Two flying cars” collide on Tuesday during the decrease of the air exhibition in China, which resulted in the injury of one of the pilots, according to a report from CNN.

The accident occurred at the Zhangchon Air Show in Gilin, China, where two Xpeng Aeroht aircraft collided hard, forcing one of them on the ground. The other car was able to land safely, according to ElectrekThe cause of the accident was under investigation.

The company told CNN that the accident was the result of “insufficient spacing” and one of the air vehicles “damage to the sustainable fuselage and the fire was caught when landing.” The condition of the injured pilot is unknown and Xpeng did not immediately respond to the questions that were sent via e -mail on Wednesday.

It seems that the videos posted on social media show one of the burning vehicles where the emergency crews operate Fire.

Xpeng is a large electric car company in China that is trying to develop vehicles in recent years, as Aeroht has become a subsidiary in 2020 Bloomberg.

Xpeng Aeroht contains a few different models of flying vehicles, and it is not immediately any model that has been transferred in this case. Electrek suggests that it was X2, which was first developed in 2021, although Gizmodo was unable to confirm this information independently.

Sometimes X2 is referred to as a “flight car”, although it does not contain wheels and cannot drive on the ground before the flight. It is more precisely described as a vertical and exhausting electric vehicle, briefly called EVTOL.

Humanity was waiting for the car for more than a century, but it never went out. The invention of a flight car is not the difficult part. We had suffering aircraft Since the fiftiesI was built by the innovative absurdity who got the impatience of the future to reach. But all other details that correspond to bringing a flight to the market are complex. It is clear that their experimentation comes with risks, and there are many organizational obstacles because rational governments do not want to drop these things from heaven.

The car always looks about two years away, if you think the main headlines. Even when the Nazirists leave the schedule, we are still disappointed. For example, the New York Times Readers the applicant In 2021, it was a resident of Jubali Air in the United States to have cars flying “in service by 2024”, noting that it would rely on organizational approval.

We are here in 2025, and we are still waiting for flying cars to go to the hoop. Because it is not just organizational approval. These types of flying vehicles can encounter problems, just like people at Changchun Air on Tuesday; Sometimes technical problems are, and at other times a human error. We do not know the cause of the accident on Tuesday.

Elon Musk recently released the idea to X to develop a Cyberrtruck. But we have heard it before. Remember when the billionaire said he wanted to build a flight Once again in 2014? The newspaper, who was interviewing with him at the time, said that you should not betray against musk because he “has a good reputation in saying things that look so good to be incredible – then made her happen.”

Well, we are still waiting.
