ADAC Luftrettung Reserves Two Volocopter Multicopters

“After the groundbreaking results of our feasibility study, we are expanding our technological lead with regards to integrating multicopters in rescue services. Volocopter is the only eVTOL on the market that is advanced enough to reliably plan a test program with for our purposes,” says Frédéric Bruder, Managing Director of the non-profit ADAC Luftrettung. “We are excited to have secured our right to receive amongst the first VoloCity multicopters upon receival of type certificate.”

By reserving two VoloCitys, ADAC Luftrettung positions itself to be the first to perform operational testing of eVTOLs as transport for emergency medical doctors worldwide. Volocopter, the pioneer of Urban Air Mobility, provides this new form of transport for emergency medical professionals in addition to building their own Urban Air Mobility services for cities.

“Our partnership with ADAC Luftrettung, Europe’s largest helicopter operator, clearly demonstrates the potential Volocopter multicopter technology brings across all areas of mobility. In this case as a new means to get medical help to more people, faster,” remarked Florian Reuter, CEO of Volocopter. “By reserving their first two VoloCitys, ADAC Luftrettung are making a clear statement of confidence about our readiness to deliver and in our multicopter technology.”
