  XPENG'S Aeroht Source: XPENG (Top 3) & More Flying Cars Car To Fly Over Traffic Jams In China, an all-electric, vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) flying car, the XPENG Aeroht, is scheduled to go into mass production in 2025 for the travelling public.  The EV is designed to help drivers escape the mammoth traffic jams in urban areas of China. Interestingly, the company was founded ten years ago by a self-described high school dropout, 45-year-old Zhao Deli.  His company is now the largest flying car company in China, with 1,000 employees and is an affiliate company of XPENG, which is a Chinese electric vehicle maker. Aeroht appears destined to be one of the first flying cars to become operational. New Automotive & Aviation Technologies Aeroht is a real flying car.  It has wheels and can be driven on the road. It is powered by 8 distributed electric motors connected to 8 rotors.  It has a lithium-ion battery system. The range on a charge is 35 minutes and the top speed i

The company's goal is to make flight available to everyone.  With 45 minutes training, Ryse Aerotech says, you are ready for takeoff.  Buy 'n' Fly Tech Specs Recon is called a "buy

  UMiles' Integrity 3 eVTOL                                                       Source:  UMiles The Drone of Drones Spain's aerial mobility vehicle developer UMiles has unveiled two, new, fascinating aircraft.  One is a remotely piloted, electric air taxi concept and the other is a piloted, two passenger eVTOL vehicle called Integrity 3.  The single seat, remotely piloted air taxi is being called the "drone of drones" by UMiles. It has been built as a prototye and will be test flown in a number of European cities later this year.  UMiles is a new contender in the growing air mobility market and an experienced drone manufacturer to watch.  It is quite a technological feat for a relatively small to medium sized aviation company to be unveiling two new models of flying technology at once. The Drone of Drones UMiles' the "drone of drones" is the first air taxi with 100% Spanish technology, development and manufacturing.  It was designed at Spain's larg

  A World First in eVTOL Commutes                                             Source:  Jetson One The Democratization of Flight The co-founder of Sweden's Jetson flying car company just completed the world's first commute in his company's $83,600 Jetson One flying car.  Tomasz Patan flew the eVTOL (electric, vertical takeoff and landing vehicle) from his home in the hills of Tuscany to his company building that is located 3 miles away.  His commute time was reduced by 88%.  His world-first eVTOL commute showcased how user friendly and time saving flying cars are designed to be.  The company says that Jetson One is fun and incredibly easy to fly.  Their goal is to democratize flying with the widespread use of eVTOLs for mass transportation. Tech Specs Jetson One is powered by 8 electric engines that have a maximum range of 20 minutes flying time.  As an eVTOL, the vehicle can take off from and land on just about any place, including a driveway, making it ultra-convenient.  T
