Guangzhou Automobile Group (GAC) unveiled its self-developed flying vehicle at the 15th China International Aerospace Expo on November 12 GOVEHe exhibited. In this event, GOVE’s flight cabin separated from the chassis Takeoff was demonstrated for the first time. The company plans to start operating with its flying cars soon.

GOVE, which completed its first flight last year, performed a low-altitude flight demonstration in Guangzhou in March. On September 11, it passed an important milestone by receiving a special unmanned aerial vehicle flight certificate from the Civil Aviation Administration of China.

GOVE, completely electric and vertical landing and takeoff capable (eVTOL) single It was designed as a flying vehicle. The flight cabin and chassis consist of two components that can move independently of each other. Therefore, there is a modular structure here. In this way, GOVE can operate in three different scenarios: driving as a ground vehicle, flying in the air and air-terrestrial connection.

GOVE’s chassis not only functions as the landing and take-off platform of the flight cabin, but also as a mobile charging station. Once the flight cabin is separated from the chassis, the chassis can be recharged by heading to a nearby charging station. When the flight cabin descends, the chassis securely connects with the cabin and supports the landing and charging process. Both parts of the vehicle together or independently of each other can act as.

GOVE’s flight cabin has a structure with 12 propellers and 12 electric motor rotors that can move in 6 axes. This design provides lifting power of more than one-third of the flight cabin’s maximum takeoff weight. The estimated flight range of the flying vehicle is approximately 200 km.

GAC announced that they are continuing the development of the flying vehicle GOVE and aim to make it compatible with Chinese civil aviation safety standards. It is stated that more than 400 flight verification tests have been carried out so far. The company plans to start flying vehicle operations in two or three cities in China by 2027.
