PAL-V Unveils The Production Model Of Its Limited Edition Flying Car

'Distinctive Features' Of The Liberty Pioneer On Display At The Geneva International Motor Show

A vehicle billed as the world's first production model flying car has been unveiled at the Geneva International Motor Show (GIMS) 2019.

PAL-V is unveiling the unique features of the PAL-V Liberty Pioneer during the show. The 90-piece limited edition, based on the PAL-V Liberty which was unveiled last year at the GIMS, will be on display March 7-17th.

"Last year we already announced that we were going to start with a limited edition of the PAL-V Liberty. This year we show the special elements of this limited edition of which delivery starts in 2020," said Robert Dingemanse, CEO & Co-founder of PAL-V. "Among other features, the PAL-V Liberty Pioneer Edition is equipped with a dual control cockpit and the Electronic Flight Instrument System. The full carbon package clearly distinguishes the Pioneer from the standard Liberty as well as a tailor-made interior and exclusive characteristic two-tone color scheme.

"The Pioneer Edition is for those that want to be part of a unique group that writes history with us. They will be at the forefront of a mobility revolution, where we will no longer have cars that can only drive," Dingemanse said. "They will be the first carflyers in their country, FlyDriving to any destination."

Developing a flying car takes a long time and a lot of persistence. It's a revolutionary development, especially as PAL-V developed a commercial vehicle that complies with existing regulations, very different from an interesting technical concept."Although more and more flying concepts are announced, only a handful of companies work on a real flying car: one that can both fly and drive, ideal for city to city mobility. The combination offers unprecedented freedom: personal door-to-door flying mobility," said Mike Stekelenburg, Chief Engineer at PAL-V. "The gyroplane principle not only provides us with a safe and easy-to-operate flying car but it also enables us to make it compact and within existing regulations, which is the most important factor to build a useable flying car."
