New passenger drone by Workhorse unveiled

Here's one of the most amazing machines unveiled at the recently concluded Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, US. It's the Workhorse SureFly which is a 2-seater octocopter. The cool stuff about the SureFly? It is autonomous!

The SureFly is a hybrid machine which relies on its eight rotor propellers for ascension and flight. Reportedly, it has a range of approximately 70 mi (112 km).

Workhorse aims to receive full FAA approval in late 2019 to begin test-flights and possibly, commercial distribution. Unit cost is under $200,000.
