The site gives the vehicle's size. Its driving length is 6.1 m and its width is 2.2 m. The aerospace wingspan is 8.8 m. The vehicle has a hybrid propulsion system with a turbocharged engine producing 224 kW (300 bhp). It uses a constant speed propeller and an adaptive transmission.

The site lists driving range of about 1,000 km on the WLTP estimate. The flying range is about 740 km. The cruise speed is 260 km/h. Take off and landing distances are 400 m and 300 m. The site says the flight figures were verified by actual flight tests.

The site lists safety features. A ballistic recovery parachute covers the whole vehicle. The structure and occupant cell are carbon fibre. Autonomous flight through autopilot is optional. The aerospace certification basis is CS 23.

The site says the team has engineers with experience at automotive and aerospace firms, including BMW, Aston Martin, McLaren, Lockheed Martin and Airbus.
