Traffic jams are a major problem in cities, making life difficult for commuters. Ever dreamed of your car flying over the traffic? Well, that sci-fi fantasy might soon be a reality in China!
In the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, lots of companies are working on eVTOLs (electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft), offering a peek into a whole new way of getting around cities. One of these trailblazers is EHang, whose aircraft just became the first unmanned eVTOL to get all the necessary safety certificates from the Chinese aviation authority.
Now that the rules are sorted and production is ramping up, how long before we can hop on air taxis for our daily commutes? And, importantly, are they safe?
Come along with our Daily Bae reporter as we take an exclusive look inside EHang's operations and even try out a test flight to see the future of transportation in action!
