Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveiled what he described as a 'flying' car, equipped with thrusters, during a livestreamed event at SpaceX's rocket facility on Thursday. Musk revealed the new Roadster sports car at a launch event at a SpaceX test facility in Texas. During the demo, livestreamed on Tesla's X account, the car launched from a steep ramp and landed on its wheels. Musk said 'Flying cars are real' and added that the vehicle's 'success is not guaranteed' but that 'it will probably work.' He stated the car was equipped with 'ultra high-pressure air tanks' to propel itself into the air. Musk described the development as 'what happens when you have a collaboration with the world's best car company and the world's best rocket company,' referring to Tesla and SpaceX.
