Larry Page is soaring these days. But, it's not what you might think.
The Google co-founder and current CEO of Alphabet Inc. ( ( GOOGL) ) has launched an autonomous electric "air taxi" called Cora. The aircraft is intended for sale to transportation services in order to reduce the impact of car traffic on the environment and help get people where they're going far faster.
"Cora isn't just about flying. Cora is about the time you could save soaring over traffic," said a statement on the Cora site. "The people you could visit. The moments that move you."
