We aim to be unique in the air mobility industry by developing a comprehensive business approach that includes hardware, software, and services. In his presentation, Shuhei Komatsu, CEO of AERWINS, says ‘Our vision is to become the leading company in the Air Mobility Eco-Sci System. Top them off with mounting points for low-end weapons (a plasma rifle or particle beam supported by a few e-clips). Make them all battery powered, with a basic 400 mile range on wheels, but only 100 miles via hover jets. It looks like rigorous tests are yet to be made with the flying motorcycle, but browsing through its site, XTURISMO is offered to flying-vehicle fans for 555,000 USD. Something you would expect to find in a small town. XTURISMO aims to be an air-mobility vehicle that can be used for practical possibilities, including use in disaster relief, infrastructure inspection, and entertainment. Using its dedicated app, riders are also afforded a virtual dashboard and localization, so that they are always informed on the flying motorcycle’s health and position. Riders are kept safe with its 3D control systems, air-route designs, mapping controls, and added sensors to detect any hurdles in the air. Its internal combustion and batteries allow the hovercraft to cruise for about 40 minutes with a speed of up to 62 miles per hour. The two-seater hover bike is designed to carry up to 140 kg (310 lb) of weight over any type of surface and it should run for some 75 minutes on a full tank. XTURISMO, also dubbed as a hoverbike, weighs around 300 kilos, but accepts a payload of more or less 100 kilos to guarantee that it can still fly and cruise in the air. What are the features of the flying motorcycle? A HoverSurf Scorpion-3 Hoverbike powered by electricity combines a motorbike seat and drone technology using quadcopters.

This drone-like flying motorcycle can be yours for. The company wants to turn science-fiction vehicles into reality and has done so by making the hovering motorcycle XTURISMO look like a spacecraft that outer-space citizens can hop on and ride as they travel in space. Hoverbikes are finally here, but don't expect to fly cheap California firm's long-anticipated flying motorcycle will set you back 150,000. The seat takes its design cues from a motorbike, a shift from the myriad of flying cars in the mobility market. Flying cars seem to be everywhere, but XTURISMO from Japanese start-up AERWINS Technologies changes transportation from automobile to electric motorcycle, levitating and drifting in the air with its two giant propellers and attached mini ones.
