The PAL-V Liberty, a FlyDrive vehicle (flying car), has successfully completed its first Periodic Technical Inspection (PTI/APK).
The PTI is an essential part of ensuring vehicles maintain optimal road safety. Passing the inspection demonstrates the PAL-V Liberty’s reliable performance as a car, while remaining ready to seamlessly transition to an aircraft.
The PTI milestone follows the PAL-V Liberty’s approval as reportedly the first flying vehicle to be road-legal.
In 2020, the PAL-V Liberty received its European road certification. This approval allowed the FlyDrive vehicle to be driven on public roads.
Now, after driving on the European roads for four years, the PAL-V Liberty has proven again to meet the most stringent safety and roadworthiness standards, confirmed by its first PTI.
As a flying car, the PAL-V Liberty combines the best of both worlds—offering the freedom of flight and the convenience of road travel, all in one innovative mobility solution.
PAL-V now concentrates on finalizing the last stage of air certification (compliance demonstration), in order to offer the first PAL-V Liberties to customers.
Robert Dingemanse, CEO of PAL-V, commented, “We are thrilled to announce the successful PTI of the PAL-V Liberty, which underscores our unique capability to design and produce safe, reliable, and sustainable FlyDrive solutions for B2B, B2G and private customers. Four years ago, we made history with our road certification, and today we continue to lead the FlyDrive Mobility solution market globally.”
