Just like with electric vehicles, Chinese manufacturers are trying to get ahead of the curve when it comes to flying car technology. Slovakia-based KleinVision, which makes the AirCar, announced Wednesday that it had sold the Chinese rights to its surface-to-air transport machine to Hebei Jianxin Flying Car Technology, which is headquartered in Cangzhou. The agreement will allow a country-exclusive license that will allow Hebei Jianxin to "Redefine transportation standards in China" by "Utilizing KleinVision's cutting-edge technology within a specific geographical region." The BBC reports that Hebei Jianxin had already built its own airport and flight school before the AirCar deal. In a September video titled "$1 vs $100,000,000 Car!" the YouTube star Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson demonstrated an AirCar flight between driving a Humvee-style boat car and taking a bevy of supercars around a shutdown oval track. "The wheels aren't on the ground anymore!" Jacobs said excitedly as he watched the car take off while standing on said ground. "It's literally a car that's flying," Hansen said from a plane following the AirCar in the air. "These cars are getting crazier and crazier."
