CTOnews.com, November 15 (Xinhua)-- the urban air traffic team of Hyundai Motor Group of Korea will build an advanced air traffic ecosystem in Nusantara, the future capital of Indonesia, to jointly promote the local future aviation mobility (AAM,Advanced Air Mobility) cause.

According to reports, AAM is a use case based on the concept of UAM combined with operations in the urban environment, while Urban Air Traffic (UAM) is an ecosystem involving passenger vehicles flying in urban areas.

Indonesia is made up of more than 18000 islands, has the largest aviation market in Southeast Asia, and is known as the most suitable area for building AAM. Hyundai expects that Indonesia's high-level infrastructure and technology in the aviation industry will help the company develop an ecosystem for AAM and plans to expand its business to the global market after results are achieved in Indonesia.

They hope to provide electric air traffic products for freight by 2026 and electric air traffic products for passengers by 2028.

Supernal's pure electric eVTOL aerial taxi is designed for intra-city passenger transport, while Hyundai says South Korean engineers are developing a hydrogen-powered medium-sized vehicle for city-to-city freight and passenger transport.
