Xpeng Electric Flying Car is Launching in 2024:

Xpeng's Urban Air Mobility (UAM) company, has shown great progress for eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) vehicles by presenting to the public. Its fifth-generation "Xpeng flying car" got introduced during the exhibition in Dubai. In addition, the company gave an update on the progress of its sixth-generation flying car, which is a real car with wheels that rotates and can take off in flight.

It is a large 2-ton vehicle with a large aircraft attached to the roof that has just completed its first flight on October 2022. AeroHT has completed more than 15,000 safe passenger flights with the goal of combining automotive and air technology to create efficient electric flying cars on a large scale. The X2 is the fifth generation of the company's "flying car." AeroHT calls the X2 a flying car because it shares a lot of DNA with the Xpeng Motors P7 sedan.

Xpeng wants to set a retail price of less than one million Chinese yuan (£114,000) and $156,600 for the car, which will be less clear than the current model and version. The vehicle will include environmental systems that can consider the weather conditions to ensure that it may be available if you want to travel. The car will be used to have a steering wheel for driving and a lever for flight.

Although it is controlled, aircraft understanding and control algorithms will help the driver avoid blocks during the airport. Besides flying cars, Xpeng also unveiled new versions of its driver assistance systems, cargo-carrying technology, and pony-shaped robots during the 1024 Tech Day.

1st Public Flight In Dubai: Xpeng Electric Car 

After the live show in Dubai, the test went well and the car landed safely, the company found that it stopped one or more of the rotors in the middle of the flight to find out what happened in the event of failure of one or more engines after. the car is in the air.

And if you think this car looks like an ordinary car with a giant drone strapped to its roof, well, that's exactly what it is. Like some commercial drones, however, the arms can be folded so that they don't stick out when you want to drive on the road like a normal car.


The first public flight was attended by more than 15 people and was sponsored by the Dubai International Trade Center, which is involved in the entire process, advising Xpeng AeroHT. The X2 flying car is on display this week at Gitex Global, one of the world's largest technology exhibitions taking place at the Dubai World Trade Center. While off-site at Skydive Dubai, the Xpeng X2 completed a DCAA-specific operational risk assessment, receiving approval for its first public flight in Dubai – it's first outside of China.

It is not clear if Xpeng intends to put this car into production (it is being done as an experiment will be), or if it is just a development model for data collection. The company admits that it is difficult to get a vehicle with 2 tons on the ground and currently cannot go more than 12 kilometers on a single battery charge, but the test flight went well, and is optimistic that it will have the power to launch the world's first electric car that can drive and fly.

The public presentation of Xpeng X2 in Dubai represents a significant milestone for Xpeng AeroHT and the international understanding of flying cars. Dubai is a world-renowned "City of Innovation" which is why the company decided to hold the first X2 public flight event here. This flight is a major milestone in Xpeng's exploration of future mobility.
