Company Overview
Alef Aeronautics is a California-based sustainable transportation company founded in 2015 that is designing and developing the 'Model A,' a fully electric vehicle with both road-driving and vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) flight capabilities. The vehicle is designed to fit within standard driving lanes and parking spaces. For flight, it utilizes a unique propulsion system and a design where the entire vehicle rotates on its side to fly forward like a biplane, with the cabin gimballed to keep the occupants upright. The company, backed by investors including Tim Draper, received a Special Airworthiness Certification from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for limited test flights. Alef is taking pre-orders for the Model A, with the goal of alleviating urban traffic congestion by providing a faster, more convenient mode of transport.
