World’s first flying car manufacturing factory to open in Guangzhou, China
London, October 28, 2024, (Oilandgaspress) –––Xiaopeng Huitian Flying Car Intelligent Manufacturing Base officially started construction. This is the world’s first flying car factory that uses modern assembly lines for large-scale mass production. It will be used to produce the flying body of the split flying car “land aircraft carrier” with a planned annual production capacity of 10,000 units.
It is understood that the Xiaopeng Huitian Flying Car Intelligent Manufacturing Base is located in the Guangzhou Development Zone. The overall project is undertaken by China Construction Fourth Engineering Bureau. The first phase covers an area of about 180,000 square meters. The planning layout includes four major production workshops and ancillary facilities for composite materials, connection, painting, and assembly. The base fully integrates the high-quality requirements of aviation and the characteristics and experience of large-scale automobile manufacturing. Compared with traditional aviation manufacturing, it can achieve better quality consistency, lower costs and faster delivery cycles, and accelerate the integrated and complementary development of the new energy vehicle industry and the low-altitude economic industry.
At the groundbreaking ceremony, Zhao Deli, founder of Xiaopeng Huitian, introduced that the base follows the concept of “exquisite, intelligent, and green” to create a global benchmark intelligent manufacturing base for flying cars. It is understood that Xiaopeng Huitian not only insists on self-development of the core technology of the product, but also produces core components in the intelligent manufacturing base to better ensure quality standards and cost control, and create value for users. The compact layout of the factory can be achieved through joint factory buildings and central distribution warehousing, which can effectively reduce waste in logistics storage and transportation and greatly improve production efficiency. Adopting a full-process, full-cycle, and traceable production management model, while meeting the aircraft quality and safety standards, the factory establishes a precise production and manufacturing traceability system from the parts supply chain to the final delivery of the vehicle, so that each part has its own “identity card”. At the same time, the whole factory plans to use photovoltaic power generation, fully equip energy-saving equipment for high-energy-consuming facilities, and use a digital energy management system to monitor the factory’s energy consumption and utilization efficiency in real time, greatly reducing carbon emissions.
