PARIS: German air taxi developer Lilium Air Mobility said on Thursday it had reached a maximum speed of 250 kilometres per hour with a technology demonstrator, calling it a key milestone on the way to certifying its electrically powered flying shuttles in 2025.
The threshold was reached during testing of the Phoenix 2 vehicle at a flight test centre in southern Spain, the company told Reuters after posting a teaser video on social media. Lilium is competing in a crowded market for electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing vehicles, hoping to replace road trips or short hops by aircraft or helicopters.
