What experts say
about us

“LYTE revolutionizes aviation with groundbreaking VTOL technology.”

Clean thinking

“The “start-small” approach has been so commonplace that eVTOLs have become nearly synonymous with smaller aircraft. But what if a startup chose to cut out the intermediary steps and start instead with a larger platform? That is the bet that Lyte Aviation, a London-based startup that recently emerged from stealth mode, is making, with plans to develop a 40-seat family of cargo and passenger hybrid eVTOLs, dubbed the LA-44 SkyTruck and SkyBus, respectively..”

Next-level Disruption: Buses, Trucks & Regional Airplanes

We embrace a holistic view on pioneering heavyweight hybrid hydrogen-electric VTOL for 40 passengers, our SkyBus, and as cargo variant, our SkyTruck.

.

With continuous growth of our world population, demand for mass transit / cargo increases and requires a new approach. The LA-44 SkyBus will redefine intracity, intercity and regional travel.

LA-44

Readier, simpler, cheaper

With proven technology since the 1960’s, while using advanced existing technologies from today, the LA-44 is going to disrupt mass passenger transit as we know it in rural and urban areas. As a SkyBus, it will transform the future of bus and train transport, and as a cargo variant, SkyTruck, it will accelerate good deliveries worldwide.

When I first saw the four-seater air taxis a few years ago, I thought to myself, ‘What if I pushed the boundaries and introduced a 40-seater eVTOL? What do we need for that?’ Naveen Jain once said ‘as non-experts, we are the better disruptors’ and that’s what I am going for. Disrupting the aviation industry is my moonshot now!”

CURRENT

LYTE Projects

Germany – Sweden – Norway – Netherlands – UAE – Saudi Arabia – India – Brazil – US

Currently, we are working on 19 different collaborations & projects in over 4 continents! Multiple new use & business cases from urban air mobility / commute of employees (e.g. Bainbridge Island – Redmond, Seattle) up to regional point-to-point connections (Twente Airport (NL) – Paris (F)).

Our customers are intrigued by the opportunity to reach higher frequencies, higher flexibilities at a cheaper price with our sustainable hybrid-hydrogen 40 seater eVTOL, as we don’t require any runways anymore in order to commute people and goods in the future!

Recently, we have also launched our 19-seater X-Primer version for Private / Business customers. And also, an upgraded design that can achieve even a range of up to 2.000 km, especially beneficial for disaster relief / humanitarian aid use cases.
