Eviation Aircraft completed the first maiden voyage for its all-electric aircraft “Alice” — an eight-minute journey at an altitude of 3,500 feet.
Two domestic carriers — Cape Air and Global Crossing Airlines — have placed orders for 75 and 50 Alice aircraft, respectively. DHL Express is Eviation’s first cargo customer, having ordered 12 Alice eCargo planes.
Electric flying taxis are also on the horizon. Last month, United invested $15 million in Eve Air Mobility through United Airlines Ventures, which supports new technologies that are geared for sustainability and decarbonizing air. United’s alliance with Eve includes plans to a purchase 200 four-seater electric aircraft, with the first deliveries expected as early as 2026.
. The vehicle is supposed to be easy on the environment and on the ears — with a range of 60 miles and noise levels that are said to be 90 percent lower than conventional aircraft.In addition to the Eve deal, United had already banked on electric-powered transportation. Last August, United gave a $10 million deposit to a California-based eVTOL company for 100 aircraft.
With multiple automotive companies chasing Tesla to roll out electric vehicles, GMC partnered with the shopping platform NTWRK to try to entice consumers with exclusive products. The hook-up was to draw attention to the Oct. 20 reveal of the first GMC Sierra EV Denali edition 1, its latest all-electric vehicle. Fashion designer Dao-Yi Chow was initially on board with a collaboration for an item that was designed to reflect Sierra EV’s technology, but that fell through.
