Flying Teslas: Back To The Future Finally Arrives?

Marking Back to the Future Day (21 October), Andrew Urquhart chats with Jaden Carr about the 1985 film's famous prediction of flying cars by 2015, and whether Elon Musk's new Tesla Roadster is finally delivering on that promise.

The pair weigh up footage of the rocket-boosted Roadster performing flips over trucks, questioning whether it's genuine flying or, as one puts it, "falling with style", and debating whether the viral clips are even real given Musk's reputation for AI-generated hype. They also touch on self-driving cars, with Jaden saying overseas trials have made her more comfortable with autonomous vehicles than airborne, stomach-churning Teslas.
