The Wisk Aero Generation 6 eVTOL Has No Interior Controls
Michael Hemsworth — December 23, 2025 — Autos
The Wisk Aero Generation 6 eVTOL is the Boeing subsidiary's latest version of its autonomous passenger carrier that has its sights set on being the first-ever candidate for autonomous flights in the US. The aircraft has no interior joysticks or pedals in favor of a Multi-Vehicle Supervisor model that sees a human based on the ground keeping an eye on up to three flights at a time. This process helps to keep costs more modest, while also improving overall safety by reducing the potential occurrence for human error.
The Wisk Aero Generation 6 eVTOL is rated to achieve an operating altitude of up to 4,000-feet and will cruise at 138mph. The aircraft would offer space for up to four passengers with luggage.
