The company Hoversurf says, Scorpio – 3 is the world's first electric hoverbike that's intended to be "an extreme sports instrument" for both "amateur and professional navigators", according to a report in The Verge.

The hoverbike's range and velocity are limited as it is said to run on custom-made software. Hoversurf says that the Scorpio-3's design was "inspired by heavy-duty sport-utility motorbike frames that basically surfs through the air by changing altitude and direction". More info
