More than 300 companies and innovation organizations showcased cutting-edge technologies and products across eVTOL aircraft, avionics, flight-control systems, propulsion, core equipment and software services at the eVTOL World Expo 2025, held Sept. 23 and Sept. 25-26 at Yanzi Lake International Convention and Exhibition Center in Pingshan District.

The eVTOL aircraft zone emerged as the expo’s headline attraction, with an array of real and concept models — including flying cars, multirotor eVTOLs, compound‑wing designs and tilt‑rotors — on display. A dedicated commercial unmanned‑transport area highlighted heavy-lift platforms aimed at logistics and emergency-response missions.

Guangdong Yesheng Aviation Technology made a global debut of three full‑scale ultralight manned eVTOLs that have applied for national patents: WingShip, WingWing and WingCool. Organizers said WingCool is China’s first amphibious ultralight eVTOL, designed for water sightseeing, landmark tours and emergency rescue. The craft is engineered for strong static and low-speed anti‑roll stability, salt-spray resistance and simple operation, and can demonstrate water-berthing capability.

Yivtol showcased its S-ZERO single-seat aircraft, which delivers 10-30 minutes of flight time per sortie. The company said it has partnerships with half of the nation’s six low‑altitude pilot cities, and a Russian buyer signed a purchase order during the exhibition.

GOVY presented its first mass-production multirotor flying car, a two-seat, pilot-free design that relies on full autonomous operation. The vehicle offers a 30-kilometer range and is limited to about 120 meters in altitude for urban use; its cabin is designed for passenger comfort. GOVY said the model is undergoing the airworthiness certification process and expects to apply next year, with initial commercial applications aimed at cultural-tourism and short urban shuttle services.

U-Wing displayed an eVTOL simulator that reproduces visual and auditory flight cues. The company said it has already supplied training equipment to multiple domestic aviation schools and is preparing to meet the surge in pilot and maintenance training demand expected with eVTOL commercialization.

The expo also hosted multiple forums where industry experts discussed key eVTOL technologies, commercialization and regulations. A session on aerospace information and the low‑altitude economy examined how space and aviation technologies can empower the emerging urban air mobility sector.
