The eVTOL , electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, also renamed as & quot; flying cars & quot; become the future of mobility short-range in urban areas? Soon to really understand even if there are many realities; who are working on it. Among these c & # 39; & egrave; XPENG we know most of all for its electric cars. The Chinese manufacturer, however, through its subsidiary XPENG AEROHT, has been working in this sector for some time and, recently, during the opening day of the GITEX Global technology fair in Dubai, carried out a test flight of its eVTOL XPENG X2 in this country.
DEMONSTRATIVE FLIGHT 
For the demonstration flight of its eVTOL, XPENG obtained permission from the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCAA). Precisely, yes & egrave; carried out at the Dubai Skydive which offers spaces suitable for the flight of an eVTOL. In the video shared by the manufacturer you can see the demonstration carried out with the X2 model. We can see how, in reality, the eVTOL is limited to taking off and staying still at a certain altitude, without making a specific complex journey.
There was no one on board as such eVTOL & egrave; also designed to operate autonomously (autonomous flight) although it is also designed to be controlled from inside.
The Chinese company explains that the XPENG X2 model is; its fifth generation eVTOL. Of this electric aircraft we know that it allows the transport of two people and has a carbon fiber structure. The maximum take-off weight is; of 760 kg. Furthermore, it can & ograve; reach a speed maximum speed of 130 km/h and has a flight range of up to 35 minutes.
XPENG AEROHT already has; made it known that I will announce & agrave; its sixth generation model at the upcoming 1024 XPENG Tech Day. For the company & agrave; Chinese, these aircraft represent the future of mobility; urban. They can be used, for example, to offer passenger transport services (so-called flying taxis) or for deliveries of a certain type such as medicines to hospitals.
Like all projects related to eVTOL this is serious; on the interesting card. To understand if this sector will really grow; you can not & ograve; do nothing but wait for the development of these aircraft and the birth of the first transport services.
