Lilium Jet – World’s first All-Electric VTOL Jet

The Lilium Jet successfully completed its maiden test flight series in the skies above Bavaria. The 2-seater Eagle prototype executed a range of complex maneuvers, including its signature mid-air transition from hover mode to wing-borne forward flight.

Lilium enables you to travel 5 times faster than a car by introducing the world’s first all-electric vertical take-off and landing jet: an air taxi for up to 5 people. You won’t have to own one, you will simply pay per ride and call it with a push of a button. It’s our mission to make air taxis available to everyone and as affordable as riding a car.

In 1894, Otto Lilienthal began experimenting with the first gliders and imagined a future in which we could all fly wherever we want, whenever we want. Lilium is turning that dream into reality. We are bringing personalized, clean and affordable air travel to everyone.

Air pollution, noise, congestion, and ever-increasing real estate prices are problems most larger cities face. Yet they also offer a range of opportunities: in culture, education, entertainment, and last but not least, jobs. With Lilium it becomes possible to profit from these benefits without the downsides of either high real estate prices or long travel times.

Lilium will have a massive positive social and environmental impact:

• Lilium will reduce travel times by a factor of 5, so people can live in the countryside and still work in the city.
• Apartments in the city will increase in affordability, since living close to work is no longer a factor.
• Lilium will reduce the need for a car, which means there will be less transit traffic and less noise in our cities.
• Lilium jets require virtually zero infrastructure investments like roads or bridges. Landing pads can be developed by anyone, Lilium will only provide the requirements and invest in the early phase to push distribution.
• Lilium jets have zero operational environmental impact, they’re 100% emission-free.
