At the just-ended Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2024 in Las Vegas, Chinese automaker XPeng’s electric aviation business arm AeroHT shared new details regarding two of its “flying cars.”
On top of living demonstrations of its eVTOL flying supercar, XPeng AeroHT said its modular flying car will be available for preorders in the fourth quarter, with plans to begin mass production and delivery to individual users in the last quarter of 2025.
As Xpeng Aeroht’s second breakthrough vehicle, the electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) flying car made its international debut at the CES, demonstrating the transition between terrestrial and aerial modes.
