That's not impressive. Its just a small airplane with a 550lb useful
load that happens to have bigger wheels. The future air/car things
were suppose to not require a pilot, etc.

It looks as if the aerodynamicists have been on break too long! There
are several areas of major interference drag; structure looks iffy, too.

All previous attempts have resulted in an inferior car coupled with an
inferior plane -- or worse!

I have little faith in this one, either.
