China To Sell Flying Taxis to BRICS Members Russia & UAE by 2027

BRICS member China has given the nod for two flying taxis’ manufacturers, GOVY and eVTOL, to reassemble a small helicopter that can fly at an altitude of 100 to 300 meters. The founder of GOVY, Su Qingpeng, confirmed that the government granted flight authorization and the firm could manufacture by 2027.

The first batch of sales of flying taxis from China will be delivered to BRICS counterparts Russia and the UAE. A company based in the United Arab Emirates has placed orders for 350 flying taxis from eVTOL. The total estimated value of the pre-orders for the 350 flying taxis is projected at $1 billion.

The design will be a two-seater, built flying machine that will resemble a small helicopter. If GOVY indeed produces and sells flying taxis by 2027, China and BRICS could capture the futuristic market.

The pilot tests would begin during the second half of 2025, with the manufacturing of the products thereafter. “We will start pilot tests in Guangzhou in the second half of this year, in the best case,” Qingpeng said. The futuristic technology could bring BRICS members closer as they might be the first to approve flying taxis.
