Japan on Track to Introduce Flying Taxi Services in 2023

Good news!

"... The SD-03 uses four pairs of electrically driven coaxial rotors, with one pair mounted at each quadrant. These enable a flight time of 5 to 10 minutes at speeds up to 50 kilometers per hour. ..."
Only 10 minutes, only 50kmh? Not sure this is good enough.
