The Brazilian aircraft manufacturer has revealed details and pictures of its new electric vertical-takeoff-and-landing concept. The second annual Uber Elevate Summit—a two-day event hosted by the ridesharing behemoth dedicated to exploring advances in urban flight technology—kicked off today in Los Angeles, giving attendees the first look at Embraer’s new electric vertical-takeoff-and-landing (VTOL) aircraft. Like the rest of Uber’s partners—including big aviation names like Bell Helicopter and Mooney—Embraer hopes its design will be adopted by Uber for its Elevate air taxi ecosystem, which Uber anticipates will be operating in a limited number of cities by 2020. The futuristic aircraft (presented thus far only in renderings) was designed by Embraer X, a skunk works–like arm of the Brazilian air manufacturer dedicated to developing innovations in transportation. Created following the last Uber Elevate Summit—during which Embraer announced a partnership with Uber—Embraer X is based i...

Back To The Future had nothing on this incredible design. Don’t take me wrong, I still love that DeLorean and it’s ‘super’ abilities, although that cool car was already impressive before the Flux Capacitor took it in a journey through time. But nowadays we are looking at a completely different future, one where BMW Designworks has something to say about what’s what. The special division from BMW joined forces with Virgin Hyperloop One in order to create a prototype design for the Dubai hyperloop capsule. Recently unveiled at City Walk Dubai, the full-scale hyperloop prototype before you has left everyone in the audience speechless. The Hyperloop will be more cost efficient to society than airplanes, taking you from point A to point B at impressive speeds of up to 1,080 km/h. In the meantime, BMW Designworks has envisioned a comfortable and engaging interior, one that would not feel restrictive or claustrophobic. The designers from BMW took inspiration from traditional Arabic patterns...

The 542 hp SUV carries a four-liter, twin-turbo V-8 engine and a wealth of refinement. Two years on from launching one of the world’s most luxurious SUVs, Bentley—the nearly century-old British automaker—is launching the Bentayga V8. What’s new? Most importantly perhaps is that alpha-numeric bit that follows the Bentayga name. It signifies the new 542 hp, four-liter twin-turbo V-8 engine, which generates 568 ft lbs of torque. We recently set off to the Austrian and Swiss Alps to stretch the new model’s legs on some exceptionally scenic roads. The Bentayga V8 bears many of the same aesthetics of its W-12-powered sibling, with four round LED lights up front, the same stance, muscular arched shoulders, and a familiar silhouette. But most notably, the matrix grille swaps the chrome treatment for a black finish, a subtle enhancement to our eyes. Not to be left out, the rear end gets a subtle tweak, as well—the twin pipes are made to look like quad pipes to further call out the difference ...

Etihad is setting a whole new standard in air travel with this private room. Traveling from Abu Dhabi to London just got even better and for the cost of only  $21,000 (Euros 17.500) I am personally looking forward to more airlines creating such wonderful travel accommodations. While low-cost carriers try to squeeze new seats into every last inch of cabin space, luxury airlines are taking first class to new heights. Quickly-growing Mideast carrier Etihad Airways is the first airline to offer a multi-room suite for its most privileged guests. Peter Baumgartner, Etihad’s chief commercial officer, told the AP a suite will likely cost about three or four times as much as a regular first-class seat. That would be about $21,000 (Euros 17.500) for a one-way ticket from Abu Dhabi to London. The suite covers 125 square feet and includes a closed-off living room, leather seating, a chilled minibar and a 32-inch flat-screen television. As if the suites, which will be available only on Airbu...

The luxury cruise line’s sleek new ship features just 300 suites When the Adam D. Tihany–designed Seabourn Encore launched early last year, it piqued the interest of even the most cruise-averse jet-setters with its promise of an intimate, yacht-like experience and sleek interior spaces more akin to a five-star hotel than a floating megalith. And now, Seabourn has hit that high-water mark again with the delivery of Ovation, sister ship to Encore. Setting off on her maiden voyage today from Venice,   Ovation features just 300 suites—all boasting ocean views and private terraces large enough to host intimate alfresco meals (if the Thomas Keller­–led restaurant gets old, that is) and, in the top-of-the-line Wintergarden suites, indulgent hot tubs. Back inside, the staterooms feature separate living quarters and plush bedrooms, outfitted in Tihany’s classic palette of dark woods, nautical navy, and lush red. And while the Ovation’s guestrooms are actually big enough to comfortably lo...
