Couldn't load pickup availability
The KAI Industries X HEVTOL redefines advanced personal aviation with cutting-edge propulsion, refined luxury, and unparalleled performance. Designed for the visionary traveler, the X merges aerospace engineering with automotive comfort, creating a next-generation HEVTOL (Hybrid Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing) platform that delivers both raw power and elite sophistication. 200 Vehicles will be made.
Technical Features
-
Propulsion System:
- 2x Williams FJ33 Turbofan Engines with custom-fitted afterburners for enhanced thrust during takeoff, climb, and high-speed cruise.
- 8x MIT 1 MW Permanent Magnet Motor, each paired with a 1.5m diameter high-efficiency fan blade, engineered for vertical lift, stability, and silent forward propulsion.
- Hybrid Power Integration allows seamless switching between jet thrust and electric vertical systems.
-
Aerodynamic Design:
- Full carbon fiber monocoque structure, ensuring strength-to-weight optimization.
- Advanced ducted-fan housing for improved airflow efficiency and reduced acoustic footprint.
- Rear twin-fin stabilizers for high-speed stability.
-
