It certainly hovers, it is a board but is it real, Lexus? Lexus/YouTube
Lexus caused an excitable stir last month when it dropped its short teaser trailer for Slide, the very real, rideable hoverboard the company allegedly has had in production for years.
The hoverboard works with magnetic levitation, which is impressive if it can actually carry the weight of a person. Unfortunately, this also means that it requires a magnetic surface to levitate. So as long as the route to wherever you want to travel to is fully magnetized, you’re good to go.
