With the development of science and technology, human exploration of travel methods has gone beyond the limitations of the ground, and it must be unrealistic for everyone to travel by plane. As a result, flying cars have gradually become the focus of attention.
Aerofugia is a low-altitude transportation business as the core technology company of Geely, committed to the commercial operation of global low-altitude intelligent transportation, creating innovative cross-border technology products, and innovating around the low-altitude transportation business segment.
AE200 is a type of 5-6 seat tilting power EVTOL independently developed and manufactured, which can meet the needs of zero-emission, low-noise and high-frequency commercial operations between cities in urban agglomerations with larger load and longer range, and can be used to replace traditional general aviation in related fields, such as air sightseeing, transportation connection, emergency rescue and other fields. Through the "self-developed + introduced" flying car product strategy, Wofei Changkong is accelerating the landing of low-altitude manned aerial vehicles in China, and has developed into an influential flying car brand in China, providing a strong boost for Geely's low-altitude travel layout.
On the one hand, Wofei Changkong has developed its first flying car, AE200, which adopts pure electric vertical take-off and landing technology, distributed electric propulsion (DEP) technology and single-wing distributed tilting power design, which overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional tilting mechanism in reliability and safety, and improves the comprehensive performance of the flying car, which has the characteristics of safety, green, comfort and economy. In terms of airworthiness progress, AE200 carried out the first meeting of TCB in the first half of this year, established a review decision-making body and an implementation body, and comprehensively carried out the type qualification certification work. On December 1, 2023, the Airworthiness Department of the Civil Aviation Administration of China issued the "Notice on Soliciting Opinions on the Special Conditions for the Type Qualification Certification Project of Wofei Changkong AE200-100 Electric Vertical Take-off and Landing Aircraft", which ushered in a key milestone in the airworthiness certification of the AE200 project and was at the forefront of the industry.
On the other hand, Wofei Changkong has established a joint venture company, Wolong Kongtai, to introduce the current high safety level and leading airworthiness progress of the Volocity light flying vehicle, which will carry out the first commercial operation "debut" over the city of Paris during the Paris Olympics next year. Whether it is self-developed or introduced low-altitude flight products, Wofei Changkong is at the forefront of the industry.
As Geely's electric flying car brand, Wofei Changkong has a full-scene product layout and leading airworthiness progress, and undoubtedly has strong competitiveness in the field of low-altitude travel. At the same time, it also makes Geely's three-dimensional mobility empire more complete and fully empowers our future mobility.
Science and technology are the support of science fiction, and the transformation of scientific and technological achievements is the "last mile" for science fiction to enter reality. It is understood that Wofei Changkong is currently carrying out in-depth cooperation with universities such as the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China to achieve faster and better transformation of scientific and technological achievements.
