Thomas and Rima Harewood's hovercar (2259)
A hovercar was a car that utilized some form of gravity-manipulating technology to "hover" over the ground, and drive through streets similar to traditional automobiles.
History
Hovercars first came into general use on Earth circa 2030s. (VOY: "The 37's")
On Vulcan, hovercars called desert fliers were a common sight on the streets of ShirKahr in the 2230s. (TAS: "Yesteryear")
In 2259 of the alternate reality, Thomas Harewood owned a hovercar. He used the vehicle to drive himself and his wife to the Royal Children's Hospital to see their daughter, who was terminally ill. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
In 2269, when Harry Mudd was attempting to sell his love potion to the miners on Motherlode, a number of hover cars and trucks were seen in the parking lot. (TAS: "Mudd's Passion")
In 2371, when the USS Voyager brought aboard a 1936 Ford truck, Harry Kim mistook it for an early hovercar. However, Tom Paris stated that particular automobile was about a century too early for that to be the case. (VOY: "The 37's")
In an alternate timeline, shortly after Jean-Luc Picard and Geordi La Forge arrived in England with the intention of seeing Data there, a hovercar was driving to Cambridge University, where Data was living. (TNG: "All Good Things...")
