Air jet introduction
Govy's flagship aircraft, the AirJet, is an innovative composite wing flying vehicle designed to operate as an air taxi over distances of up to 124 miles. This innovative aircraft combines the efficiency of a fixed-wing aircraft with the flexibility of a multirotor system, enabling vertical takeoff and landing capabilities.
AirJet is made from over 90% carbon fiber composite material, making it incredibly lightweight, weighing just one-third of the weight of a conventional car of its size. This lightweight design not only improves performance, but also allows for longer electric flight times.

robo air taxi system
GAC's vision goes beyond individual aircraft to encompass a comprehensive Robo-AirTaxi system that integrates ground and air transportation for an end-to-end smart mobility solution. The system utilizes the Govy AirCar for short-haul urban trips of less than 19.4 miles and the AirJet for medium-haul trips of up to 124 miles. A key aspect of this vision is the creation of the “40-minute Greater Bay Area Life Circle'' in China, which aims to facilitate efficient intercity travel and significantly reduce travel time and costs.
