Company unveils futuristic water taxi that glides over water

As technologies evolve, they typically get bigger, faster, and more mind-blowing. Hydrofoil electric boat models, which evoke something out of a sci-fi movie, are no exception.

French company SeaBubbles unveiled its new head-turning water taxi, the Smart Bubble. It builds on the company's earlier craft — the Bubble — and takes it to the next level, as New Atlas detailed.

SeaBubbles shared the Smart Bubble in action in the video embedded above, and viewers can get a quick feel for how smooth and futuristic the ride is with the hull suspended above the water.

The vessel stays in the water, like conventional boats, at low speeds and taps into its two-propeller electric drive system.
