The smallest footprint in its class[01]

  • -At 8x11m (the smallest in its class), the e200X is designed to operate within the city as it exists today.
  • -Leverages existing infrastructure for immediate urban deployment, unlocking dormant helipads across hospital rooftops, corporate campuses, and government facilities.
  • -The e200X fits fully within currently available helipads.

All-electric Vertical liftoff[02]

  • -10 Independent Propulsion Units: 6 dedicated vertical lift rotors, 4 dedicated forward propellers.
  • -Compact Footprint 8 x 11 m: Fully vertical VTOL operations from any helipad or less than the space needed for 2 parking spots.
  • -Fail-Safe Redundancy: Vertical and forward propulsion systems are structurally and electrically isolated to guarantee fail-safe phase transitions.

Designed for the highest safety standard.[03]

  • -Zero single points of failure across flight controls, powertrain, and energy storage.
  • -Designed to match the 10⁹ safety probability required for commercial air travel.
  • -Integrated sensor suite providing real-time obstacle detection and automated avoidance.

Zero emissions. Zero downtime.[04]

  • -Optimized exclusively for high-density urban corridors.
  • -160 km/h cruise speed: Perfectly balanced to transition total weight onto the wings while disengaging vertical rotors post-launch.
  • -110 km range on a single charge: Enables up to three 30 km back-to-back intra-city trips with zero ground stops or mid-day charging.
