Lufthansa, one of Europe’s largest airlines, previously launched an initiative aimed at slashing its carbon emissions in half by 2030.

The eVTOL manufacturer says it’s ready to start building the first Lilium Jet models, which it plans to use for flight testing with EASA.

ArcosJet, Lilium’s exclusive authorized dealer in the United Arab Emirates, Israel, and Cyprus, will sell the four-seat eVTOL to private customers in the UAE.

Company is planning to sell 100 eVTOLs and develop sales, service, and vertiport infrastructure.

The deal offers access to high-end European business travel and tourism markets.

The agreements could yield up to 56 orders for the Germany-based electric, vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) air taxi developer.

EASA releases world’s ‘first’ regulatory framework for air taxis operating in European cities.

In a decision central to success for its electric vertical takeoff and landing air taxi, Germany-based Lilium has selected Astronics to design, develop, and manufacture the electrical power distribution system for the Lilium Jet.

Gear for Germany-based Lilium’s electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) production aircraft will allow pilots the option for short running landings in addition to vertical landings.

Germany-based electric vertical takeoff and landing developer Lilium (NASDAQ: LILM) announced Tuesday it has achieved one of the most challenging hurdles of eVTOL flight: a main wing transition from hovering to horizontal flight in a full-size demonstrator aircraft.
