Designed to vertically take off and land with superb stability, this emission-free electric vehicle enables fast and safe door-to-door transportation anywhere, including uses for emergency rescue.<\/strong> Successfully tested for manned flight, SkyDrive recently advanced toward commercialization<\/strong> with the Japanese transportation ministry\u2019s acceptance of its type certificate application \u2014 a major milestone that no other flying vehicle developers have reached in Japan. 

CES 2022 will see Model SD-03, a demonstration model for the new, autonomous SD-05, which is currently under development and eyed as an air taxi for World Expo 2025 in Osaka.<\/strong> 

\u201cSkyDrive\u2019s emission-free vehicles can quickly take off from and land in your parking lot and helipads atop buildings, making door-to-door air service a realistic choice of daily urban transportation,\u201d SkyDrive CEO Tomohiro Fukuzawa said. \u201cWe are working harder and faster than ever to make this once-in-a-century mobility revolution a reality. We cannot wait to be in Las Vegas to demonstrate the SD-03 model, which is the culmination of our expertise in drone technologies and aerodynamic engineering.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
