What started as a childhood fascination with remote-controlled airplanes has transformed into a groundbreaking venture that’s shaping the future of travel. Zhao Deli, founder of XPeng AEROHT, and Owen, a former fighter pilot turned social media influencer, are on a mission to make flight accessible to everyone.
Over the past decade, Zhao and Owen have shared a common dream: to make flying as free and effortless as driving. Zhao’s journey from tinkering with toy planes to engineering “flying cars” exemplifies the innovative spirit fueling this revolution. Meanwhile, Owen has transitioned from soaring through the skies in fighter jets to promoting the low-altitude economy, bringing aviation closer to people’s daily lives.
In an exclusive interview, the duo unveiled the “Land Aircraft Carrier” Modular Flying Car—a fusion of automotive and aeronautical engineering that promises to redefine personal transportation. “Our goal is to break the barriers between ground and sky travel,” Zhao explained. “We want to offer a new vision of mobility that combines convenience, efficiency, and the joy of flying.”
The modular design allows the flying car to operate seamlessly on roads and in the air, adapting to the user’s needs. Owen added, “This technology has the potential to transform cities and how we perceive distance. Imagine commuting without traffic jams or exploring places previously out of reach.”
Their collaboration symbolizes a blend of technological expertise and a shared passion for flight. By leveraging social media, they aim to inspire a new generation to embrace aviation innovations. “We believe that by making flight freer, we can open up endless possibilities,” said Owen.
As they continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible, Zhao and Owen are not just building flying cars—they’re pioneering a movement that could change the way we live and travel.
