 On June 14, the headquarters project of China FAW's flying car officially settled in Dapeng New District, Shenzhen.

According to the agreement, the four parties will focus on the R&D, production and market expansion of flying cars, and carry out comprehensive in-depth cooperation in technology research, scenario implementation, and ecosystem building. They will jointly explore policy innovation, technological breakthroughs and mass production in the flying car field, promote the high-quality and large-scale development of Shenzhen's flying car industry, lead the transformation of future three-dimensional transportation, and help Shenzhen build itself into "the first city for low-altitude economy".

 

China FAW will register and establish FAW Qiyi (Shenzhen) Technology Co., Ltd. in Dapeng New District to carry out flying car-related businesses such as R&D, manufacturing, testing and operation. The company strives to build FAW's global headquarters for flying cars, gradually establish R&D centers, manufacturing and operation service centers, solidly advance in-depth cooperation with Shenzhen's industrial chain, and fully promote efficient resource connection and collaborative development.

As a state-owned super-large automobile enterprise group, China FAW is one of the first central enterprises to deploy R&D technologies for core equipment in the flying car/eVTOL low-altitude economy industry. It has been actively developing flying car vehicles, key equipment and core technologies, and successfully developed the Hongqi Tiannian-1 flying car.

It is revealed that the Hongqi Tiannian-1 flying car is planned to make its first flight within this year. Subsequently, it will integrate the advantageous resources of both the automobile and aviation manufacturing fields, focus on independent innovation of key technologies such as flying car/eVTOL overall design, power system, flight control system, avionics system and airworthiness safety, explore digital R&D solutions for flying cars, continuously promote the performance optimization and airworthiness safety improvement of flying car vehicles, and build a full-life-cycle flying car industrial ecosystem covering R&D, manufacturing and operation.

This "hand-in-hand" cooperation between China FAW's flying car headquarters project and Shenzhen's Dapeng New District will inject new momentum into the development of flying car vehicle manufacturing in Shenzhen, promote the formation of a complete "R&D-manufacturing-application" industrial chain in Shenzhen, and also provide support for the commercialization of China's low-altitude economy from policy pilot to commercial implementation.
