One month ago, the company Eviation debuted its all-electric airplane named Alice. The new prototype had a flight for 8 minutes above the city of Washington, US.
They have developed three types of classes:
-Commuter class: Elegantly designed for quiet, high-end regional travel, it's lowest class but instead of this it is very comfortable. It has a passenger capacity of 9 people with elegant personal storage.
-Executive class: It's the luxurious class, it has a lot of personal space, complemented by a state of the art galley wardrobe and huge luggage compartment with an ample room for golf clubs or although bikes, it has a passenger capacity for 6 people.
-Cargo class: It isn't designed for transporting people, it transports goods. With control temperature controlled for optimal haulage. It has a cargo volume of 12'74 m³
It's powered by 21500 small Tesla battery cells. The batteries weigh 4 tonnes, half of the total weigh of the plane. It's zero emissions and reduces noise of normal planes.
