What sets the eVTOL apart are its folding propellers, a feature that allows it to operate like a conventional vehicle on roads and, with a few simple adjustments, become a flying machine.

During the display at CES, XPeng Motors not only revealed the physical prototype of the eVTOL, but also presented an illustrative video highlighting the vehicle’s ease of handling. This was the first time the company held an eVTOL demonstration outside of China.
