Eviation CEO Talks Electrifying The Skies With Its Upcoming Plane via InsideEVs
The electric car industry proved that vehicle electrification could be viable on a mass scale. Today, manufacturers are building, motorcycles, buses, and other non-car products. However, there is one industry sector in which electrification hasn't yet taken off. That is the aviation industry.
The firm has made it the TIME100 Most Influential Companies 2023. So can this EV company become the Tesla of the aviation industry? We talked to Aviation CEO, Gregory Davis, to find out.In September 2022, Eviation's prototype of its electric plane called the Alice made its first flight. The Alice has a sleek T-tail design and dual 850 horsepower electric motors giving it a futuristic look.
By not needing an extra pilot, the Eviation Alice will be less costly to fly from the get-go and help decrease delays."There's also a global pilot shortage right now, so being able to operate the aircraft with one pilot is beneficial from that regard," Davis said.
."One of the big differences though is that over time we expect to see the overhaul cycles for the motors get longer and longer as they prove themselves in the marketplace."As with electric cars, electric planes offer an array of benefits. The most notable is the less expensive"fueling" costs."For the aircraft, electricity that is derived from the grid is between 30 and 70% cheaper than aviation fuel, and that's in today's environment," Davis told InsideEVs.
