"Terrafugia"has developed the Transnaissance and the TFX, after a tireless work that began in 2006, before the first was approved last year by the US Federal Aviation Administration.
Following Jelly's acquisition of the US-based Chinese company, it is expected to be the first aircraft in the market in 2019.
We are committed to providing our full support to Travogia (...) to make the aircraft truly a reality, "said Lee Shufu, founder and president of Jelly. "He said.
Geely aims to launch its first aircraft in 2019, while hoping to finish the first car to take off and land in 2023.
Transit has folded wings and a landing gear, with a seat for the driver and one passenger for his side.
The aircraft can travel at speeds of up to 160 kilometers per hour, a distance of up to 640 per flight, and flights at a height of 3 kilometers maximum.
The latest design, TFX, has two electric motors in each wing, with a speed of 322 kilometers per hour and can travel 800 kilometers per flight and is expected to cost $ 261,000.
