Chinese business aviation services group Sino Jet is planning to add eVTOL aircraft to its fleet. On Friday, the Hong Kong-based company reported that it had signed an agreement with Aerofugia to buy 100 of its AE200 tiltrotor vehicles.

Aerofugia, which is owned by automotive group Geely, has said little about how far the development work for the five- to six-seat vehicle has progressed, beyond releasing a video showing flight testing of a prototype. According to the announcement with Sino-Jet, the AE200 will have a range of up to 300 kilometers (188 miles) and a speed of 250 km/h.
