A company spokesperson indicated that Corleo is a long-term vision, with a potential market release by 2050.

The video looks all cgi. Headline bait.

Absolutely. This is a flight of fantasy. Just being able to imagine something doesn't really cut it for concept items any more - you've got to have something vaguely functional you can demonstrate before it's worth seeking external attention.

It’s not even good CGI!

"Hydrogen powered..." Yeesh.

observationist• 1 year ago

Yeehaw! That's one spectacular failure mode.

Hydrogen powered? Where do you refuel it.

Isamu• 1 year ago

You ride to the sun.

lifestyleguru• 1 year ago

Boil some water and pour 2/3 of it into the tank.

My dreams of a real-life Giddyup Buttercup are finally coming true…in 25 years. Hydrogen powered? Seems about as realistic as a Fallout-style nuke-powered one.

outer_web2• 1 year ago

You could always get a hay-powered one.

boznz• 1 year ago

Forget the flying car. I want one!

uberdru• 1 year ago

Me too! Much rather have herds of these than fleets of cybertaxis.

kazinator• 1 year ago

Jumps shark at hydrogen.

Should go into production around the same time that the Primer does.

As mentioned in other comments, this is just a concept, they haven’t built it

But it’s a pretty cool concept. Video here:

The mounts in the Horizon games on PlayStation are even better as a concept, as they let you actually try it on. And they're probably as close to implementation as this.

Hydrogen is bullshit.

This is the world that I want to live in. Where I can gallop on a robotic horse and drink juice which heals my tumour but come in different colors.

zimlu• 1 year ago

I can see this evolving into a sport like the moto gp

The Chevaline! It's probably possible to build The Primer, and the John Zaibatsu doesn't seem very outlandish too.

But guys, that book wasn't a manual.

AngryData• 1 year ago

This is just CGI of an idea somebody had, no part of this exists yet. Its no different than if some random grad student made a video of a flying car concept that they thought of while binging old sci-fi.

runjake• 1 year ago

Many of the comments are getting this wrong. This video is CGI-generated. However, a prototype exists but all it can reportedly do is stand up and balance itself at present.

suddenexample• 1 year ago

Ah, sounds like it's just as far along as Tesla's robotaxi then!

bastawhiz• 1 year ago

The company has confirmed the use of a 150cc hydrogen motor that generates electricity to drive the robot’s four legs.

Is hydrogen a better way to store electricity than just batteries? This seems awfully roundabout.

vrighter• 1 year ago

Cos a hydrogen engine is the best way to generate electricity. Given that the entire vehicle is around the same size as the fuel tank in a pickup truck, and hydrogen's very low volumetric energy density.

Make the thing, then try to sell it, ffs.
