“…Volkswagen Group China unveils the first electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) passenger drone prototype – the V.MO.
The final version of the fully electric and automated eVTOL could eventually carry four passengers plus luggage over a distance of up to 200km.
Urban air mobility is set to become a key market segment and the Group’s Vertical Mobility project in China is developing a new premium mobility concept aimed initially at high-net worth tech-savvy Chinese customers.
CEO Wöllenstein: “Our long-term aim is to industrialize this concept and, like a ‘Flying Tiger’, break new ground in this emerging and fast-evolving new mobility market.”
