Sirius Aviation AG, a Switzerland-based startup that is dedicated to utilizing hybrid hydrogen-electric propulsion mechanisms to revolutionize aviation, is developing futuristic eVTOL aircraft that is designed to be able to fly high speeds and cover impressive distances without contributing to the pollution of the skies.
The 'Sirius Jet' is an eVTOL aircraft that will be able to run on a liquid hydrogen powertrain that will enable spectacular performance results. For example, this particular eVTOL aircraft will be able to fly across a range of just over 1,850 km and will be more than capable of attaining a speed of 520 km/h.
What's more, this eVTOL aircraft will be able to use a special thrust system that allows it to take off vertically much like a helicopter.
