Air taxis – the high-flyers of the Shanghai auto show

A flying taxi can be seen at Auto Shanghai for the first time. And it is, of all things, a German product from the company Volocopter. The vehicle is presented by the Chinese car company Geely, which has invested in the German start-up. It may well be that people will soon get used to seeing air taxis at car shows. Because last week, the Chinese aviation regulator began the approval process for the everyday operation of flying taxis.
