The Brazilian aerospace firm is the third-largest civil aircraft producer, with several top-selling business jets. Now it’s introducing electric air taxis.

Almost all aircraft passengers in the Honeywell survey will be willing to hop aboard the new generation of eVTOLs. But respondents also cited safety and flight costs as possible issues.

The Doroni HX-1 electric air taxi and Klein Vision’s AirCar both have hundreds, if not thousands, of pre-orders. But they are very different birds.

Companies like EHang and AutoFlight are also planning to expand outside China to develop Asia’s “low-altitude economy.” The government-backed initiative is seeing a rush of startup eVTOL makers and suppliers.

The Japanese automaker has kept its eVTOL program a mystery since announcing it in 2021, but an FAA waiver suggests it will soon start flight tests.

The CityAirbus NextGen’s jaunt shows the eVTOL sector that the world’s largest aircraft manufacturer is moving forward with its own electric aircraft.

Samson Sky’s new Switchblade iteration has larger wings, a bigger interior and increased fuel capacity. The company says it’s a more efficient, improved aircraft.

The German eVTOL maker said it is insolvent, with a future that remains unclear.

The marque will now own about 22 percent of Joby’s common share.
