Information
VoltAero has developed the world’s first parallel and series distributed hybrid propulsion system that will power a family of general aviation aircraft – CASSIO – with seating capacities of four to 10 passengers. The proprietary propulsion system delivers a total output of 600kW, allowing for flight distances of up to 1,200km in a heavy-hybrid mode, offering 3.5 hours of flight autonomy. Benefitting from this propulsion configuration and CASSIO’s modular design, the aircraft can be configured for different flight modes that range from pure-electric flight
