90 Taxi
Taxi 9090 million for the construction of an electrical aircraft taxi.
Lilium, the Germany -based start-up Lilium, has received $90 million for the construction of a five-seater, all-electric air taxi. Funds will be used to support the development of the company's five-seat Lilium Jet business and to expand the company's workforce to more than 70 employees. A fully turbocharged Lilium Jet could remain in the air for about an hours and fly at over 180 km/h, as planned.
There will also be an on-demand function that allows the user to order the taxi to a nearfield. With this round of finance, Lilium's mutual fund totaled more than $100 million after the start-up company last year made a $10 million seed outlay. Tencent, Skype co-founder Niklas Zennström's Atomico, Twitter co-founder Ev Williams' Obvious Ventures and the LGT retail bank group are the latest round of capitalists.
"This is the next step in our fast development from concept to commercial success that will revolutionise the way we fly in and around the world's cities," said Daniel Wiegand, Lilium's chief executive officer and co-founder, in a declaration. Although it looks as if the pilotsless trip will be part of our futures, an earlier survey by UBS, a leading global provider of banking services in Switzerland, revealed that more than half of those questioned were not willing to fly a pilotsless trip, even if it is cheaper.
Lilium in April heralded the world's first test mission of its all-electric two-seater VTOL test aircraft. It is Lilium's expectation that the first fully operational manned aircraft will take off in 2019 and that the on-demand facility will go into operation in 2025.
