NEW YORK (PIX11) – Flying taxis may be coming to New York City as soon as 2025.
Joby Aviation is making an aircraft that fits a pilot and four passengers. It’s powered by six electric motors. It will have a vertical takeoff and landing.
Booking a ride would be as easy as other rideshares, with just a few taps in an app, according to Joby Aviation.
Engineers said the aircraft are quiet enough to blend in with everyday noise.
