A few days ago, Xpeng Huitian officially released the latest trailer of its "land aircraft carrier", showing more details of the product. According to the official arrangement, the "Land Aircraft Carrier" will be released on September 3, and reservations will be opened in the fourth quarter of this year, and mass production and delivery will begin in the fourth quarter of 2025. Xpeng Huitian "Land Aircraft Carrier" is a split flying car for mass production and delivery for individual users, which is composed of two parts: a land body and a flying body, and the land body can be completely stored in the vehicle to move on the ground.

The latest trailer announced this time shows the exterior design of Xpeng Huitian's "Land Aircraft Carrier" Lu Xingti, which can be seen that the front part of Lu Xingti is quite similar to Tesla's cyber off-road station wagon in terms of styling, and the entire front of the car is composed of multiple facets, and the design style is very tough; In addition, the front of the car features continuous headlights, which can be lit during the day to form a T-shaped shape on both sides. In addition, the Land Running Body has a large inclined front windshield and its A-pillar section also contains triangular windows. In addition, there are four doors in the riding space of the Land Walking Body.

In contrast, the flying body adopts the aerodynamic layout of a decentralized multi-rotor, and it can also be seen that there are ducted rotors on the flying body. It follows that the distributed multi-rotor will be responsible for climbing, descending, and maintaining the necessary lift in the vertical direction, while the ducted rotor will be responsible for the movement of the flying body in the horizontal direction. Underneath the entire rotor system is the crew compartment of the flying body.

Previously, Xiaopeng Huitian officially said that the "land aircraft carrier" is designed for future three-dimensional transportation, and in land mode, the flight body's rotor arm, rotor and other flight system components can be completely folded and stored in the body of the land body; In the environment where conditions permit, the flying body can achieve vertical take-off and landing, fly over congestion, obstacles, rivers, etc., by deploying the rotor arm and rotor and enter the flight mode, so as to meet the needs of people for short-distance low-altitude flight.
It is reported that the intelligent cockpit of the "Land Aircraft Carrier" land carrier can carry 4-5 people, and the cockpit adopts a foldable steering wheel, a transparent instrument panel and a transparent chassis in the cockpit. In terms of power equipment, the extended-range electric drive system is adopted, which can continuously replenish the energy of the flying body; The shape walking system adopts 6×6 all-wheel drive with rear-wheel steering for better load carrying capacity and off-road performance.

The "Land Aircraft Carrier" is a manned aircraft, which adopts pure electric vertical take-off and landing and distributed rotor electric propulsion, and can be driven manually or automatically. In addition, the flight body adopts a two-person cockpit layout, with a 270° panoramic window and a wide field of vision.

For reference, in June 2024, the Xpeng Huitian Voyager X2 officially completed its first flight in the Airport Economic Zone of Beijing Daxing International Airport. Officials said that this is also the first flight of manned low-altitude aircraft, including flying cars, in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. The Xpeng Huitian split flying car, that is, the "land aircraft carrier", can meet the needs of exploring the intercity commuting of the split flying car.
At present, Beijing will build a national low-altitude flight application innovation demonstration and open up multiple application scenarios. In terms of intercity commuting, we will establish commuter routes between Daxing Airport and Xiong'an New Area, Capital Airport and Tianjin, Langfang and other regions, and explore new formats of intercity commuting + intra-city ferry application of split flying cars.
