The PAL-V Liberty, the world’s first FlyDrive vehicle (flying car), has successfully completed its first Periodic Technical Inspection (PTI/APK), 4 years after its groundbreaking road certification. The PTI milestone follows the PAL-V Liberty’s historic approval as the first flying vehicle to be road-legal, solidifying its position as a pioneer in both the aviation and automotive industries.
In 2020, the PAL-V Liberty received its European road certification, marking a revolutionary moment in transportation history. This approval allowed the FlyDrive vehicle, which can seamlessly transition from aircraft to car, to be driven on public roads. Now, after driving on the European roads for four years, the PAL-V Liberty has proven again to meet the most stringent safety and roadworthiness standards, as confirmed by its first PTI.
The PTI is an essential part of ensuring vehicles maintain optimal road safety, and passing the inspection demonstrates that the PAL-V Liberty continues to perform reliably as a car while remaining ready to take to the skies. As a flying car, the PAL-V Liberty combines the best of both worlds—offering the freedom of flight and the convenience of road travel, all in one innovative mobility solution.
“We are thrilled to announce the successful PTI of the PAL-V Liberty, which underscores our unique capability to design and produce safe, reliable, and sustainable FlyDrive solutions for B2B, B2G and private customers,” said Robert Dingemanse, CEO of PAL-V.
