The future of aerial vehicles
The Swedish company Jetson AB was founded in 2017 by Peter Ternström and Tomasz Patan. Both creators came with a dream in mind: to turn all drivers into pilots. In this way, Jetson is trying to change the way we get around, and for this they plan to simplify the process with their flying cars.
For its part, the company has previously stated that “Our goal is to make the skies available to everyone with our safe personal electric aerial vehicle.” For this reason, Jetson has focused on developing its eVTOL technology (an acronym that translates into Spanish as “electric vertical takeoff and landing”). So far, the Swedes claim to be the only company on the market that can provide users with personal flying vehicles.
The Jetson ONE was officially launched in October 2021. At the time of its presentation, Jetson announced that the only 12 units that had been scheduled to be produced in 2022 were sold in a very short time.
Now, the company has a list of 242 more units, which have already been sold to be delivered in 2023. In addition, the company received more than 3,000 purchase requests during this time, and although they cannot respond to all of them, this shows that the public's interest in aerial vehicles is increasing dramatically.
The Jetson ONE eVTOL flying car is currently priced at US$92,000, but requires a US$22,000 deposit in advance. however, it seems that the price has not been an impediment to the success of this new technology, because the Swedish company cannot cope with so many purchase requests.
