@RepDerekKilmer @zevaaero Thank you @RepDerekKilmer for stopping by to see @ZEVAAero’s exciting progress & explore the future of #eVTOL & advanced air mobility in our region. We're so fortunate to have leaders like you who value the importance of advocating for #innovation & #startups.
There are incredible innovators and entrepreneurs across our region - including the team at ZEVA, a Tacoma-based startup focusing on zero-emission electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft transportation. Great to stop by to meet the team and learn more about their mission!
What an honor to welcome @RepRickLarsen to ZEVA’s headquarters yesterday to see our aircraft up close & learn more about @ZEVAAero’s vision & exciting trajectory. I appreciated discussing the future of #eVTOL in our region with a fellow champion for #aviation!
Expanding upon the design of their original Zeva Zero, @zevaaero’s new Z2 prototype offers increased speed and efficiency. The innovative aircraft has expected top speed of 160 miles and a range of approximately 50 miles.
And science fiction simply becomes science! Thanks @b0yle for having me on @Fi_Sci_Club to explore @ZEVAAero's evolution & the #futureofflight. Listen here: https://t.co/9F6U6mVfVh
"Just like the Zero, Zeva’s Z2 prototype is a zero-emissions, single-occupant #eVTOL designed for a variety of applications, including emergency response & law enforcement."
Thanks, @HannekeScience for letting us share about our latest Z2 developments via @FutureFlightAIN!
Zeva Aero, the company behind the flying saucer-shaped Zero eVTOL that made its inaugural test flight earlier this year, is working on a new prototype aircraft. https://t.co/hM9l7V7xPI
The future for #eVTOL is bright. ✨
But…there are still technological, regulatory & legislative challenges to overcome in order to optimize #urbanairmobility.

Looking forward to another year at @EAA#Airventure2022 Wednesday and Thursday. ZEVA will not have a booth at the airshow, but we're working hard on some exciting updates—keep an eye on our @zevaaero channels this week!
If you're at AirVenture, let's connect!
@WIRED That's great but you can't take of them on a commercial air flight. This sucks. I'm a boy scout at heart. I like to help people and fix things and I like to be prepared.
“I see eVTOL as the largest opportunity in a lifetime,” says @zevaaero CEO and Chairman Stephen Tibbitts, “My goal is to ride and fly.”
