Hoverbike
A hoverbike (or hovercycle) is a vehicle that can hover, resembling a flying motorbike, having at least two propulsive portions—one in front of and one behind the driver. It is often used as a staple vehicle in science fiction and near future settings, but since the early 2010s some attempts have been made at developing a functional, practical hoverbike.
Aeronautic motors
Starting in 2014, Malloy Aeronautics has been developing the Malloy Hoverbike, which uses a quadcopter-like lift.
In April 2016, British inventor Colin Furze announced he had created a hoverbike using two paramotors.
The Aero-X is a hoverbike designed to carry up to two people.

The A.L.I. Technologies XTurismo was on sale in Japan from 2021, and in the United States the following year. It requires a pilot's licence in most countries, but not in Japan. It is considered a proof of concept with 200 to be made, with a smaller version planned for 2025, at a much lower price.
