Urban air mobility (UAM) — the aerial transportation of passengers and goods in an urban environment — is enabled by new aircrafts with a distributed propulsion system, vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capabilities, low noise, highest safety, low infrastructure requirements, and cost-efficient operations. Furthermore, because VTOL is emission-free in flight, it will help with the preservation of clean air in cities. Let’s take a closer look at urban air mobility.
