Sirius Jet to introduce liquid-hydrogen eVTOL aircraft

The Sirius Jet will fly up to 1,150 miles (1,851 km) at speeds up to 323 mph (520 km/h) on a clean liquid-hydrogen powertrain. It’ll rise vertically off a pad thanks to a deflected vectored thrust system using 20 smallish electric ducted fans. It’s the work of Swiss startup Sirius Aviation AG, which has apparently
