description Becker cites that the future of flying is near. AeroMobil is exhibiting a production model and claims it will soon begin taking pre-orders for the vehicle. Two major players in achieving an acceptable power-to-weight ratio are materials engineering and tribology. Lightweight, high-strength materials for vehicle structures are necessary to maximize payload. Carbon fiber composites are used extensively for body and interior assemblies. High strength-to-weight ratio metal alloys (aluminum, magnesium and titanium) are used for critically stressed components in the suspension and powertrain where possible.
