Airspeeder is an electric flying car racing series based in London , UK .

Its ultimate goal is to host races where fully crewed flying cars go up against each other.

The vertiport is merely a concept, and it remains unclear when or where it could become a reality, or how much it would cost to build.

At the heart of the design is the Skydeck , which sits directly beneath the airborn racetrack.

To facilitate this, Alauda’s engineers have developed an innovative slide and lock’ system for the rapid removal and replacement of batteries when on the ground, this technology debuts on the Mk3. A strategic layer is added to the sport with this approach as teams will be able to adapt battery strategy depending on the dynamic requirements of that particular section of the race. For example, for courses requiring more manoeuvrability but less straight line speed, a lighter battery pack can be easily selected to deliver more manoeuvrability at the cost of raw power or endurance.
