Joby Aviation

We plan to launch the world’s first-ever electric air taxi service in Dubai, taking passengers from DXB Airport to iconic locations across the city. Our partners Skyports Infrastructure and Road & Transport Authority - RTA have already broken ground to turn this render into reality.

Our electric air taxi, explained in 60 seconds.

Ahead of our planned service launch in Dubai with Road & Transport Authority - RTA, you can now see the Joby electric air taxi on display in the Museum of the Future! Get ready for the future of urban transportation.

Yesterday, we hosted Canadian Advanced Air Mobility (CAAM) and its delegation members at our facilities in Marina, California, for a full day of meaningful discussions with a range of important stakeholders including Transport Canada - Transports Canada, NAV CANADA, National Research Council Canada / Conseil national de recherches Canada as well as other provincial and federal government representatives, airports, and industry. We enjoyed having the opportunity to share our aircraft and technology with our friends from up north!

As we prepare to launch our commercial air taxi service, Joby airspace engineer Christabelle Bosson, PhD., explains how the simulation work we’ve done in partnership with NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration paves the way for safe and efficient operations.

Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian to Fox Business Network's Liz Claman on their partnership with Joby: "We're really impressed with the technology. We think they are the leaders in this space."

From batteries to motors, our aircraft is designed to incorporate redundancy across the entire powertrain system. Joby battery engineering lead Ernest Villanueva gives a quick overview 👇 👇

In August 2023, Joby and the Federal Aviation Administration worked together to measure the propeller "outwash" of our aircraft, or the speed of the airflow from its propellers. The resulting data shows that the Joby aircraft's outwash does not present an increased risk relative to traditional light helicopters and is acceptable within established safety areas for heliports of all sizes. We will continue to work proactively with the FAA and other stakeholders to promote safety in vertical flight and prepare for commercial deployment.

“As CEO of Joby Aviation, Bevirt is getting closer to turning his boyhood flights of fancy into a dream come true as he and latter-day versions of the Wright Brothers launch a new class of electric-powered aircraft vying to become taxis in the sky.” Thanks to Michael Liedtke and the AP for covering Joby’s progress towards bringing electric air taxis to cities around the world. https://lnkd.in/e8Dfz7dB
