Supernal's mysterious new eVTOL concept
What will they unveil at CES this year?
Remember Supernal, Hyundai Motor Group's Advanced Air Mobility venture? I mentioned them in a past news article, right here on Cars Can Fly! Anyway, they're making a return to CES this year - basically to unveil their heavily anticipated eVTOL product concept, and that's just the tip of the situation.
Right at the doorstep of the Las Vegas Convention Center, Supernal is constructing a "vertiport" exhibit that's all about immersing attendees in the next chapter of transportation. Here’s the intended experience:
You get a first look at Supernal's eVTOL vehicle, a concept that's been under wraps and is now ready to show.
A flight simulation takes you through the cityscape of LA – it's like a theme park ride, but for real-life commuting.
You can explore potential flight networks, mapping out future sky routes.
You'll understand how upcoming "mobility hubs" will streamline and simplify travel.
For the press, Supernal is rolling out the red carpet with these events:
Press conference: Mark your calendars for Tuesday, January 9 at 11:00 a.m. PST. Space is limited, so RSVPs are a must.
Press open house: Later the same day at 5:00 p.m. PST, another chance to dive in. Remember, RSVP is your golden ticket.
The Who?
At the helm of this futuristic showcase are Jaiwon Shin, CEO of Supernal and president of Hyundai Motor Group (whoa, the head honcho!); Ben Diachun, the tech wizard and chief technology officer of Supernal; and Luc Donckerwolke, the design guru and president and chief design officer of Hyundai Motor Group. They're ready for up-close and personal media chats.
The Where?
All this action is going down at the Supernal "Vertiport," located in the Diamond parking lot, right by the West Hall entrance of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
More deets:
Supernal (pronounced Su•per•nal) isn't just about crafting an eVTOL vehicle; they're piecing together the whole ground-to-air ecosystem. As a part of Hyundai Motor Group, they're leveraging top-notch manufacturing, automation, and R&D prowess to bring this efficient transportation alternative to life. Their philosophy? It's not about racing to the market; it's about crafting the right product for the right market, from the get-go.
