By 2030, Dubai has a target that 25% of personal trips will use autonomous vehicles. This includes introducing the Volocopter ‘flying taxi’. Khaled Al Awadi, from Dubai’s Road Transport Authority, told us more.
The fully electric two-seater has 18 motors and is capable of transporting people without human intervention or a pilot.
