European aerospace firm Airbus has now presented the electric air taxi CityAirbus in Ingolstadt, Germany, which will become a testing ground for testing this transport technology. Ingolstadt is a member of the Urban Air Mobility (UAM) Initiative project, within which it is possible to use passenger unmanned flying vehicles in urban environments.
CityAirbus will carry up to four passengers on regular routes, for example, from the airport to downtown. It is assumed that over time, the flying taxis will become fully unmanned and will serve as an efficient alternative to ground public transportation. These air taxis can be used in the field of health, for example, to quickly transport doctors, donated blood or organs for emergency operations.
