During the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris in 2024, passengers will be transported by the flying taxis "Prosperity I" with electric takeoff and landing (eVTOL).

As the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris are intended to become a global arena for innovation and progress, AutoFlight aims to demonstrate the potential of its eVTOL flying taxis in real conditions. This is aimed at emphasizing AutoFlight's potential in expanding sustainable urban logistics and passenger transportation in real-world scenarios.

AutoFlight will conduct experimental manned flights from the Pontoise Vertiport, which aspires to be the most advanced of its kind. Pontoise Vertiport offers comprehensive infrastructure, including dedicated takeoff and landing zones, a modern passenger terminal, a fully equipped maintenance hangar, and advanced control areas.

The eVTOL AutoFlight "Prosperity I" is designed for short flights within the city and to the airport, connecting two nearby cities or enabling flights to rural areas, avoiding ground congestion. The "Prosperity I" claims a "record-breaking" range of 250 km and boasts energy consumption levels comparable to those of an electric car.

The company has stated that this aircraft is one of the few that has successfully overcome the complex "transition phase" from vertical to horizontal flight, having done so hundreds of times. Under optimal conditions, Prosperity I promises a maximum speed of over 200 km/h, similar to conventional helicopters.
