告别堵车：飞行汽车明年上市
This flying car will be ready for take off in 2017
Finally, the long-awaited flying car is almost here.
终于,人们期待已久的飞行汽车就要面世了.
AeroMobil, a Slovakian company, plans to start selling its creation, the AeroMobil 3.0, in 2017.
斯洛伐克公司"AeroMobil"计划在2017年开售创意新品AeroMobil 3.0.
The company claims on its site that the vehicle "transforms in seconds from an automobile to an airplane" by using "existing infrastructure created for automobiles and planes."
AeroMobil在官网上发文称,这款飞行汽车"能利用现有的汽车和飞机基础配置","在几秒内从汽车变成飞机".
The vehicle is gas-powered and has wings that fold, which allows it to be parked like a car, though it is nearly 20 feet long.
AeroMobil 3.0是汽油动力车,两翼可折叠,折起后可以像正常车辆一样停靠,不过,该车车身长近20英尺（约6米）.
The company's web site features a video where the AeroMobil 3.0 drives out of a hangar and goes down a highway, sharing the road with regular cars until it arrives at an airstrip. The car then unfolds its wings and takes off from a stretch of grass, rather than a paved tarmac, and flies through the air like any other small airplane.
AeroMobi在官网公布了介绍视频.视频中,AeroMobil 3.0从飞机库中驶向高速路,和普通汽车一起行驶.进入飞机跑道后,它张开双翼,没有从平坦的柏油路面起飞,而是在草场上升空,像其他任何小型飞机一样在空中翱翔.
AeroMobil spokesman Stefan Vadocz said his company hasn't nailed down an exact price because it's not ready yet.
AeroMobil的发言人史蒂芬·瓦多茨表示,公司目前还未对此款飞行汽车进行具体定价,因为产品尚未完全成型.
"The prototype is a work in progress," he said in an email. But he said to expect the price to be several hundreds of thousands of euros, somewhere in between a sports car and a light sports aircraft.
他在邮件中写道："原型机仍在制造中."价格预计会在数十万欧元,介于跑车和轻型运动类飞机之间.
