General Motors Co. unveiled two futuristic Cadillac concepts, an electric shuttle, and an autonomous vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) drone, as their way of reimagining the future of personal transportation.
The flying Cadillac is a single-passenger, all-electric, self-driving vehicle which takes off and lands vertically and carries the passenger through the air.
The flying vehicle has a 90kW motor, an ultra-lightweight body with four pairs of rotors, and a GM Ultium battery pack.
It could travel from one urban rooftop to another at speeds up to 55 miles per hour.
The flying Cadillac was unveiled in a video presentation by CEO Mary Barra, along with a family-friendly Cadillac electric shuttle.
Barra revealed last year that GM was exploring such alternative transportation modes as aerial taxis.
GM design chief Mike Simcoe described the VTOL as “the Cadillac of urban air mobility,” adding that it is key to their vision for a multimodal future.
Other carmakers, such as Hyundai, Toyota, and Geely, have shown aerial vehicle concepts as part of their future planning.
Meanwhile, the autonomous Cadillac shuttle features a boxy silhouette, a panoramic glass roof, and fore and aft sliding doors.
GM said that the shuttle is arriving soon.
