An unfortunate incident related to innovative technologies has occurred in China. According to Bloomberg, two aircraft collided during air demonstration exercises in Changchun.
According to the information, these devices were created by one of the largest electric car manufacturers in the country - Xpeng Inc. This event raised serious questions about the safety of using new technologies in airspace.
According to details, after the collision, one of the electric vehicles capable of takeoff and landing caught fire. The second flying car managed to make a safe emergency landing. Although there was no information about the death or serious injury at the time of the incident, experts emphasize that serious analysis and measures must be taken to prevent such a situation from recurring in the future.
In fact, Xpeng Motors announced plans to launch mass production by 2026 a few months ago. The company notes that artificial intelligence technologies are widely used in the control system of new types of aircraft. It is planned that this will create the possibility of unmanned flights and provide additional comfort and safety for passengers.
Currently, it is possible to order this type of product in China. However, their mass production and large-scale sales are expected to begin in 2026. Nevertheless, this incident in Changchun sparked public debate regarding the safety of new technologies.
