Xpeng AeroHT Launches $280,000 Land Aircraft Carrier Flying Minivan

Revolutionary Modular Design

• 🚀 Xpeng AeroHT has launched the Land Aircraft Carrier, a production-ready modular vehicle for personal luxury transportation.
• 💡 This innovative system features a six-wheeled electric mothership that carries a detachable, two-seater eVTOL aircraft.
• ✅ Customer deliveries are slated to begin later this year, with the vehicle becoming a reality by February 2026.

The Ground Module: A Six-Wheeled Mothership

• 🛣️ The ground module, or "mothership," is a 5.5-meter-long, rugged six-wheeler with three-axle all-wheel drive and rear-wheel steering.
• 🎨 Its design is influenced by the Tesla Cybertruck, featuring sharp angles and a minimalist aesthetic.
• 🔋 Powered by an 800-volt extended-range EV setup (internal combustion engine as a generator), it offers over 1,000 kilometers of mixed range.

The Air Module: Detachable eVTOL Drone

• 🚁 The two-seat air module is an electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) drone that slides out from the van's rear compartment.
• ⚙️ Its six arms and propellers unfold in less than five minutes after a one-click operation.
• ✈️ Constructed with over 42% lightweight aviation-grade carbon fiber, it features a 270-degree panoramic cockpit for low-altitude personal travel.
• ⏱️ It achieves top speeds of 130 kilometers per hour with a flight time of approximately 35 minutes, supporting both manual and autonomous flight.

Integrated Charging and Performance

• ⚡ The mothership acts as a mobile energy platform, recharging the air module's battery from 30% to 80% in just 18 minutes.
• 🔋 This synergy allows for up to six individual flights before the ground vehicle needs replenishment.

Market and Pricing

• 💰 The Land Aircraft Carrier is priced at approximately 2 million yuan (around $287,000 USD), positioning it as a high-end luxury item.
• 🏭 Produced in Guangzhou, China, with an initial capacity of 10,000 units per year, Xpeng has already secured over 7,000 pre-orders.
• 🎯 Beyond luxury, it has practical applications for emergency services, including medical rescue and high-rise evacuations.
• 📈 Xpeng's CEO views this launch as a key step to dominate the low-altitude economy, a market projected to reach multi-trillion dollars.
