Car manufacturer Lexus is making the teenage dream from the Back to the Future II come true with the public debut of their new hoverboard.

Named SLIDE, the board requires a magnetic track to hover but is sadly not being developed for commercial use.

The announcement is part of the promotional ahead of the release of a new Lexus car model.

A teaser video released by the Japanese company suggests the product will be debuted on Wednesday.

The timing is fitting: Michael J. Fox's character from the popular film franchise Marty McFly picks up his hoverboard in 2015.
