Brazil based airline Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes plans to purchase as many as 250 electric air taxis from Vertical Aerospace Group in an effort to move into the ride-sharing market. The VA-X4 vertical takeoff and landing model is a zero-emission four-passenger aerial vehicle that can fly at 200 miles per hour with a range of more than 100 miles.
American Airlines which recently said it would buy a minority stake in Gol, has also pre-ordered air taxis from Vertical Aerospace.
