Meanwhile in France (EU)

one of these countries has a future car industry and the other does not - can you guess which is which?

The one on the left is not a practical vehicle.

so?
the fact that one can just play around and the other one is screaming for the EU to save them (European car industry) says alot

You VILL be banned from purchasing superior Chinese automobiles at inexpensive prices
You VILL finance an obsolete, horrendous, overpriced German or French econobox or "luxury" car (final inspection by Mehmet Ali)
You VILL pay higher taxes so the unionized workers of say brands can sit on their ass making 70€ an hour.
And you VILL be happy

Mutts wish they could be us

What's the point of flying cars ?

probably not gonna hit production with the RCS thrusters.

you can see how light it is that it's bumpy on a smooth road, first 3 seconds of video

>>225534102
yeah lightweight, no anything, a fucking balloon
>>
>>225530624
the situation in america is the same. there chinese cars are banned outright.

and chinese car production gets massive state subsidies in china, without these subsidies they wouldnt be cheap. these subsidies are specifically designed to ruin the competition in the west. its actually batshit insane that the EU even allows chinese cars onto the market at all. we are literally getting our industry destroyed by it.
>>
>>225534543
Even without the subsidies its 30% or so cheaper to build since they can get all the parts locally, not banning or tariffing them to hell was retarded
>>

so you're Germans after all?

how much of a bugman do you have to be to söyface at kikelon just epic sciencerino projects

bet you think you're going to be living on mars one day uh you mouthbreathing sub-trekkie nigger
>>
How is the European spirit so utterly cucked that they see a flying fucking car that may go on the commercial market and just haughtily scoff at it. At what point was your sense of wonder beaten out of you? I just don't understand this mindset of "well it's not another boring hyper practical chink made goy box" and "why would I ever need a flying car"?
>>
>sense of wonder
lmao

the eternal mutt
>>
>>225535713
For me it's not so much a lack of sense of wonder (I am probably a cynic though) but for me it was that hyperloop and the mars colony by 2024 or something (they were literally nowhere near the ballpark of even entertaining these ideas). That semi tractor was also reduced to delivering chips (because they weigh nothing) (while real EV trucks do exist). Afaik, the other tesla cars were in tesla plans before elon musk except for the cybertruck

What's the use case of the one on the left? The right one is $15k and get you from point A to point B.

>>225535110
>cheaper to build since they can get all the parts locally
They still have to pay for them, but once again at discount prices thanks to state subsidies. They are blatantly breaking all international market rules.

>>225535713
Europoors convinced themselves having AC is some kind of evil that announces the devolution of society, never forget that

>a flying fucking car that may go on the commercial market
This isn't even a technology demonstrator, all the technologies applied here already exist. And they aren't on the market because they are either not technically viable or because they violate all basic safety rules.
The very idea of using thrusters on public roads is hilarious, even setting aside the laws of physics and the phenomenal amount of energy required to overcome gravity.

what equivalent innovations is the EU outputting
>>
>>225538016
The "EU" isn't a real entity, it's a political concept, the "EU" will never invent any tech or whatever.

Maybe you should trust socialists' and socialist owned media's agitprop less
>>
>>225535713
Holy shit you're actually retarded

>>225538118
You're avoiding the question, name equivalent innovations that are being developed within Europe

European manufacturers want to keep their slice of the Chinese market so EU has to appease China.

>equivalent innovations
There is no innovation here anon, all of this is old existing tech strapped together for a circus show. Stabilization thrusters were used in the Appolo and Soyouz programms, vacuum fans were used on 70's race cars, electric cars themselves are a century old...

That sounds so much better to me than a driving airplane. You realise that, right? I've got a car and no pilot's license. Airplanes cost a lot, too I think
>>
>>225528597
How much gas does it consume though?
>>
>glue the spacex rocket stabilizers to a car
americans: hurrdurr flying cars

Yeah, the stunt was cool. No that will never be given to the general public.
>>
It was a stunt and Tesla cultists are deranged. Imagine giving a Basketball American a car that could fly.
