A British drone manufacturer is taking a bold leap into the future of urban transportation. In just a few years, the skies over Europe could be buzzing with air taxis, offering an innovative solution to ease congestion on crowded city streets. Skyports, a leader in the field of urban air mobility, plans to launch its air taxi service in 2026 after successfully raising $110 million in funding. This move places Skyports at the forefront of an emerging market that is set to redefine how we think about urban travel.
Skyports, a pioneering British drone manufacturer, is gearing up to launch Europe’s first air taxis in 2026. After securing a substantial $110 million in funding, the company is poised to revolutionize urban transportation with its electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. Skyports has already demonstrated the potential of eVTOLs through successful transport and surveillance tests. This significant financial boost brings the concept of commercial air taxis closer to becoming a reality for passenger transport.
