Urban Air Mobility - CityAirbus NextGen


Airbus is leading the charge for urban air mobility, and Airbus leaders are cautiously optimistic. Airbus is working on Vertex for part of the technological development, but leaders say that while the technology continues to develop, there are many factors at play before we see a CityAirbus NextGen flying around. They mention things like safe integration of aerospace corridors and community adoption of autonomous flight, for example.


CityAirbus NextGen is a four-person eVTOL aircraft with eight propellers. It offers a quiet flight at 65-70 dbA (about the impact of a range hood over a stove), with a flight range of 80 km (just under 50 miles), and speed of 120 km/h (equivalent to 75 miles per hour).
