The Cadillac eVTOL was shown off by General Motors at CES 2021 as a futuristic vision of transportation that would drastically transform how we think about getting around our cities. The flying vehicle falls under the brand's new motto that includes the 3 Zeros including "Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions and Zero Congestion." The unit would run on a 90kWh motor with four propellers and just enough room on the inside for one person to easily get around in an ultra-fast manner.
The Cadillac eVTOL maintains an autonomous functionality that would allow passengers to simply sit back and relax as they commute or fly between destinations. The vehicle comes as a very compact rendering of air-based transportation solutions that would likely do quite well in urban areas where space constraints need to be considered.
