Volkswagen always is known to be people car but this time company has announced a different strategy in which selection has made for the different platform on the basis of ideas submitted by Chinese for Volkswagen upcoming model. According to marketing director of Volkswagen “LUCA DE MEO” this project was scheduled for one year after announcing which Volkswagen get 450 million people to access through the internet in china. After 1 year of struggle, Volkswagen selected three ideas from 1190,000 + ideas that were the best participant for their next concept; their names were “Music Car”, “Hover Car” and “Smart Key”, the one from these three that take as their next concept is “Hover Car”.
Now the question arises what kind of technology they will use and how it will work??
Technology Used and Working:
This is a two-seater car that hovers above the road with electromagnetic road networks, the technology used in this car give strong understanding that this can detect other vehicles on road and can easily measure the distance from other cars as well. This car can easily take turns on congested roads in china and can park easily anywhere because it will be much smaller than other vehicles. According to sources, this car thought to have two driving modes, one is that sitting person inside the car will control the vehicle and other is the car will use its sensors and networks to drive itself known to be driverless. There are so many discussions about levitating hovercar of Volkswagen if it is a real concept or fake?
Is Concept Real or Fake?
First good thing; it is a real concept that Volkswagen got for their “People Project car” so all rumours about its fakeness are fake and a group from Stanford university already working on its design but releasing date for this car not yet been announced because it will take time but not much time.

Similar Projects on which other companies working:
Volkswagen is not the only company that is working on a project like this but there are seven other companies those are working on similar projects like Volkswagen, major differences between those and Volkswagen is named of cars and technology used in cars but the concept of flying above the road is same. Volkswagen technology is far better than others because other companies will use same flying concepts using fans and motors where Volkswagen will use Electromagnetic waves to repel the roads for giving smoother and bumps less car driving experience (it make real sense of car, not helicopter or aeroplane).
Evolo Company Concept:
This is first in our list; it’s a German company that has announced to have a fully functional volocopter VC 200 in 2018. This will work using 16 motors and six batteries, batteries will take 40 mints to charge after which 17 mints flight can be done.
Terrafugia Company Concept:
2nd company on the list is Terrafugia which is building the same flying concept car that will able to take off and land automatically but main operations will manual other than flying. Operating will not be a difficult task and require less practice to do so. There are no battery and motor details available but according to details, it will cover a distance of 500 miles with a single charge. This car is expected to release in 2025.
Zee-Aero Company Concept:
Now this one is much near to Volkswagen hover car because it is reported that many people have seen hovercar in Hollister which assure its production, testing and resemblance to Volkswagen. From reports, it’s been found that Google co-founder “Larry Page” is funding Zee-Aero to build this flying car. There is no expected release date for this car but in a couple of next years, there will be some announcement.
Slovakian Company Concept:
Solavakian Firm Aero-Mobile is making an aircraft which resembles more with Terrafugia’s car that will fly in the air as well run on roads.
E-Hang Company Concept:
This is a Chinese company that is working on the same project to build an aircraft plus car; they will release their car after the permission of Federal Regulation. According to reports and news, this car will able to lift 220 pounds and can fly over 11,000 feet’s. There will be no manual driving options in this aircraft car but the person will enter its location and car will fly towards that. This car is a prototype yet and in testing stages, again no final date is being announced but we can expect this to be released in next 3, 4 years.
Airbus Company Concept:
Airbus working on flying car concept that will have the sitting capacity for one person and it uses 8 motors to fly on 1000 feet’s height. This company is also working on flying taxi project which is named as “city Airbus”.
All six companies cars other than Volkswagen has many resemblances with each other because these all are more like aircraft rather than a car that will fly in the air but not above the road, Where “Hover Car” by Volkswagen is not same because this car fly just a few feet’s above the road and not use any fans or motors but work with detectors and electromagnetic waves, only company zee-aero working on same technology like Volkswagen.
