There are NO cars of which I am aware of having an airspeed indicator.


The only car that comes to mid is the Moulton Taylor Aerocar.


But why have an 'airspeed indicator' if it never moves?


I think you are confusing Molt Taylors Aerocar (which flew and drove back
in, what, 50's, 60's? There are still a few around) with the Moller SkyScam
which, as you note, has never gone anywhere (I believe that he did fly one
in ground effect for a short period of time).

But, we have gone way off the original topic with appears to be - can you
use some kind of digital air speed meter in an automobile? The answer to
that would be, yes, but why would you want air speed for a vehicle traveling
on the ground?

Perhaps something got lost in the translation. The original post referred to
"fans" but I think that was fans as in "people who like" and not "things to
blow air"...
