Electric air taxi is taking off

Joby Aviation’s vision for fast and clean city travel is becoming a reality with its partnership with Virgin Atlantic. The Air Taxi seats 4 passengers and take off vertically, similar to a helicopter. But unlike helicopters, it’s quiet and produces zero emissions. 6 tilting rotors let it hover, lift, and cruise through the skies. It can reach speeds of up to 200 mph with a range of 100 miles when fully charged. Test flights have taken place in both the United States and Japan. Joby plans to launch commercial service in Dubai and London in late 2025. Should short-range flights be replaced with an all-electric air taxi? Learn more at jobyaviation.com
