New Seaglider Could Revolutionize UAE Travel"},"content":{"rendered":"

A futuristic transport system could soon make trips between Abu Dhabi and Dubai faster and more affordable. The Seaglider, an innovative electric vehicle<\/strong>, promises to cut travel time between the two cities to just 30 minutes<\/strong> \u2014 at a cost of around AED 165<\/strong>. That\u2019s quicker than a helicopter and cheaper than a taxi.<\/p>\n

The Seaglider is an all-electric vehicle designed for coastal travel. It moves like a boat at low speeds but takes off above the water once it gains momentum. It can reach speeds of up to 290 km\/h<\/strong> while flying just above the water\u2019s surface, reducing drag and avoiding waves.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This high-tech transport solution is being developed by American start-up Regent Craft<\/a><\/strong>. CEO Billy Thalheimer introduced the concept at the World Governments Summit in Dubai on February 11. According to Regent Craft<\/a>, the Seaglider could be operational within the next two years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A survey by Regent found that interest in the Seaglider is higher in the UAE than in other countries<\/strong>. Around 98% of UAE respondents supported the idea, compared to 86% globally. Given that 85% of the UAE\u2019s population lives along the coast and many people frequently travel between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, this technology could be a game-changer for the region.<\/p>\n
