German startup Væridion is collaborating with Bosch to develop an all-electric nine-seat regional aircraft, aiming for its debut in six years. "Situated within Bosch Campus, Væridion will focus on developing, integrating, and testing high-voltage batteries aimed at creating a 100% electric 9-seater regional aircraft by 2030," the company announced in a news release.
The aircraft will be developed in the technologically advanced environment of Bosch's facility in Holzkirchen, Germany. This location provides access to the necessary talent and tools for the project. "Væridion’s commitment to electric aviation aligns perfectly with our vision to foster innovation in aerospace technologies, including electric, hybrid, hydrogen, and fuel cell solutions," stated Bosch spokesman Jens Hoffman.
