Why Lilium

The world needs electric aviation

To tackle climate change the world urgently needs to accelerate the decarbonization of transport. At Lilium, our mission is to make sustainable, high-speed regional air mobility a reality. With the eVTOL market projected to grow to $1 trillion by 2040*, the future of flight is electric.

Ducted Electric Vectored Thrust

The technology at the core of the Lilium Jet is Ducted Electric Vectored Thrust (DEVT). Generated by proprietary electric jet engines, DEVT yields advantages in payload, aerodynamic efficiency and a lower noise profile.

High density batteries

We are developing high power, high density silicon-anode lithium-ion batteries to power our electric aircraft, supported by industry leader CustomCellls who will manufacture the cells.
