Why is the Lilium Jet a jet – in fact, the first eVTOL jet? Julien Rasse, a Senior Test Engineer explains. He compares the streamlined architecture and ducted electric engines to classic aircraft and open-rotor eVTOLs. Julien also takes us into Europe’s biggest wind tunnel facility where the team is testing the aerodynamic interactions of the Lilium Jet. The data gathered in these meticulous tests has helped refine the performance and efficiency of Lilium's design, maximizing safety and function

Lilium Jet: All-Electric eVTOL for Sustainable Air Mobility The Lilium Jet is an all-electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft designed for efficient, zero-emission air travel with minimal ground infrastructure. Assembly of the first two aircraft began in Gauting, Germany, as Lilium pursues dual certification from EASA and the FAA, targeting initial customer deliveries in 2026.
