The rapid evolution of urban air mobility (UAM) is reshaping the way we think about transportation, and the Chinese automotive and aviation company Xpeng AeroHT is at the forefront of this revolution. The company recently announced the launch of a groundbreaking vehicle concept: an electric van integrated with an unmanned two-seat passenger drone, commonly referred to as a “land-based aircraft carrier.”
Xpeng AeroHT, a subsidiary of Xpeng Corporation, is set to revolutionize transportation with the launch of its flying car, targeting delivery to customers by 2026. Brian Gu, co-president of Xpeng, shared these exciting developments in a recent interview with CNBC. The company has been diligently working towards this ambitious goal and is currently navigating the certification process with Chinese aviation authorities.
