Autoflight, a Chinese start-up developing autonomous and electric aircraft for passengers and cargo, has secured a major order from Singapore-based fleet-management and air-transport company EvFly for 205 Prosperity I and Prosperity Cargo electric vertical-takeoff-and-landing (eVTOL) aircraft, the company announced Thursday.
Expected to be delivered in 2025, the first 10 Prosperity aircraft will operate in Middle Eastern markets such as the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia. EvFly—which plans to eventually deploy additional units in Asia and Africa—aims to operate both eVTOL aircraft and electric airplanes (also known as conventional-takeoff-and-landing aircraft, or eCTOLs) on those continents as well as in the Middle East.
