The fully electric Heart X1 is set to conduct its first flight in 2025, and will become the largest fully electric aircraft ever to fly. This would mark a critical milestone in Heart Aerospace’s development of its 30-seat hybrid-electric regional passenger aircraft, the ES-30.
The all-electric, zero-emissions ES-30 will have a range of 124 miles (200 kilometers) and an extended hybrid range of 249 miles (400 kilometers), thus offering unmatched sustainability as well as efficiency on short-haul routes. The Heart X1 demonstrator’s first flight is designed to validate the capabilities of Heart’s innovative electric propulsion technology. Look for it to take to the skies from upstate New York’s Plattsburgh International Airport in 2025.

We’re thrilled to join Plattsburgh’s thriving aerospace community as we push the boundaries of air travel towards a cleaner, more sustainable future. Electric commercial airplanes have the potential to lower operating costs for US airlines, creating a powerful opportunity to reestablish regional air routes that stimulate local economies, boost tourism, and enhance access to urban hubs. We’re impressed by the leadership shown by New York’s North Country region in the support of next generation airplanes,” said Anders Forslund, Heart Aerospace’s co-founder and CEO.
