Flying motorcycle drone
Developed by Japan's ALI Technologies, the "hoverbike" weighs 300 kg, can carry one rider and travels at top speed for up to 40 minutes. ALI began accepting orders the same day the bike was unveiled, and plans to deliver a limited edition of 200 to customers by the first half of next year, priced at $682,000. Powered primarily by an internal combustion engine, the Xturismo relies on two main propellers to float high. At the unveiling ceremony, CEO Daisuke Katano said, "We want to propose a new lifestyle with this water vehicle." A politician at the event said that in addition to leisure, bicycles can be used to rescue people from water accidents.

Japan Develops Manned Drone Motorcycle
A Japanese startup has developed a single-seater manned drone motorcycle, a means of transportation for delivery that can quickly deliver products to customers.
Japan’s Ali Technology recently features four propellers in front and back of the motorcycle body called the “Hoverbike.”
Ali Technology was developed to allow drones to fly and deliver light items or places where vehicles cannot enter.
The rider can fly for more than 40 minutes on a single charge.
{The company explained that it will apply new materials to bikes to reduce the weight of the fuselage or increase the number of battery mounts to increase flight time. }
