Storyline


An electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, developed by the ninth academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, completed its maiden flight in southwest China's Chongqing Municipality on Friday.

The aircraft also successfully completed all performance verifications, according to its developer.

Featuring a novel configuration that combines air vehicles and automobile designs, the eVTOL aircraft can seamlessly switch between land and air travel modes to meet diverse transport needs, its developer said.

Consisting of wings, a cabin and a chassis, the aircraft has two major components: an airborne module and a road-going module. The airborne module can carry two passengers at speeds of up to 150 kilometers per hour at altitudes below 3,000 meters, while the road-going module, featuring a fully electric intelligent chassis, offers a range exceeding 300 kilometers.

As a multipurpose low-altitude equipment, the eVTOL aircraft can be used in fields such as transportation, logistics and emergency support, according to its developer.
