eVTOL stands for electric vertical takeoff and landing—a new class of aircraft that combines the vertical lift capability of helicopters with the efficiency of fixed-wing flight, powered entirely by electric propulsion. Free from reliance on runways and offering quieter, cleaner operations, eVTOLs are widely seen as the technological foundation for the next era of low-altitude urban and regional air mobility.
With critical enablers now converging across policy, regulation, infrastructure, and supply chain, the eVTOL segment in China is approaching a structural inflection point. Not only China is on track to become the first major market to achieve scaled deployment, but it is also positioned to build a comprehensive ecosystem, solidifying itself as a long-term global leader in the aerial mobility space.
