The Elektrisk is a fully autonomous, electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicle for inner city travel. Inspired by Volvo's design language, this E-VTOL utilizes nine electric turbines which can pivot to provide both vertical and horizontal travel, all with zero emissions. The Elektrisk also utilizes a rectangular wrapping wing design, which greatly improves efficiency and aerodynamics. The Elektrisk is expected to cut down on travel time by one tenth that of conventional means of transportation, moving us towards a faster and more eco-friendly future.
