Deloitte's 'Advanced Air Mobility, Disrupting the Future of Mobility' looks ahead 10 years to when air taxis will be common over city skies.
“Our study showed that the speed improvement of these air taxis could be three to five times faster than driving options today,” John Coykendall, principal of Deloitte’s Global and US Aerospace and Defense leader division, told“We believe AAM will integrate with the transportation methods we have today—it’ll be a case of ‘and’ with this type of transport rather than ‘or’ with existing modes.
Manufacturers like Lilium are designing multi-passenger aircraft that work as air taxis. Deloitte predicts they’ll be cheaper than high-end ground transportation. “The AAM transportation mode could present an alternative to the premium taxi market for some trips due to passengers’ willingness to pay for the time [savings] and that it can be positioned as a luxury mode of transport,” said the study.
Or in some of its case scenarios, AAM ride-sharing is less per seat than a premium taxi, with much more significant time savings.Coykendall says the commuter base will have the same priorities as they do today—some commuters will make travel decisions on price and others will look at time savings. “The first and last mile of the journey will also be very important,” he says.
Joby has been the first eVTOL maker to receive FAA Part 135 Certification for air-taxi service. The California manufacturer expects to take its first commercial flight in 2024.
