VoltAero

Safe, efficient and eco-friendly: these are the keywords for VoltAero’s aircraft design. Building on 10 years of pioneering expertise, VoltAero is bringing a distributed hybrid-electric propulsion system for safe, quiet, efficient and eco-friendly flight.

VoltAero’s production aircraft will provide a highly-capable and reliable general aviation platform for private owners, air taxi/charter companies, commercial flights for point-to-point regional travel, and for use in other utility-category applications. Seating from four to nine persons, the aircraft will have a flight duration of at least 3.5 hours. 

Aircraft deliveries are expected to begin in 2021-2022 from VoltAero’s final assembly facility in the Nouvelle Aquitaine region of southwest France.

Building on the VoltAero team’s expertise – which includes the founders CEO Jean Botti’s and Technical Director Didier Esteyne’s decades of experience in the aerospace industry, developing electric aircraft – the company is ready to usher in a new era of safe, efficient and eco-friendly electric flight.

Our CEO & Chief Technology Officer is named as one of the “global advanced air mobility sector’s brightest minds” in eVTOL Insights’ 2024 CTO Special Report. Jean Botti was one of nine CTOs recognized for their leadership – especially with the emergence of new technologies. 👏

Two great teams come together to shape the future of regional air mobility! 🤝 During the Farnborough International Airshow this week, we are joined by the Kawasaki leadership, underscoring this company’s role as a strategic investor in VoltAero for development of the Cassio aircraft family. 🛩 

The airshow also is providing the opportunity for Kawasaki Motors to outline its future vision and roadmap for the aeroengine sector. In addition to the current development of a 2.1 liter, 6-cylinder aircraft engine based on technology of the H2R high-performance motorcycle engine (displayed on VoltAero’s Farnborough exhibit stand),  Kawasaki also is working on a 1 liter, 4-cylinder aeroengine – with the goal of obtaining type certification for both by 2030 in the gasoline version, and by 2035 for the hydrogen and e-fuel versions.
