Let us recall that the concept of the new AeroHT vehicle involves the movement of travelers on a six-wheeled electric all-terrain vehicle with a steering rear axle, in the body of which an electric aircraft is stored. The latter will be manufactured on a production line in Guangzhou, for the construction of which part of the recently attracted $150 million will be directed.
