The UAE presented the Xturismo hoverbike adapted to the conditions of the desert. It can soar to a height of 20 meters and fly for up to 40 minutes without refueling and recharging.

According to the developers of the flying motorcycle Bayanat, in collaboration with the Japanese Aerwins Technologies, the use of a hoverbike is optimal in relatively unfavorable environmental conditions. And that’s why they see it primarily in rescue, search and police operations, but also in the oil and gas industry and the construction industry.

Xturismo is made of high strength carbon fiber used in the aerospace industry. The weight of the motorcycle is 300 kg. It is powered by a four-stroke turbocharged Kawasaki racing petrol engine.

Xturismo has already been successfully tested in Japan, production is planned in the UAE, where the model will be optimized for local climatic conditions. The cost of the flying model is not stated.
