DENSO, Honeywell Partnership Takes Off to Create Electric Propulsion Systems

for Urban Air Mobility

Partnership allows DENSO opportunity to bring world-class automotive technology, design and development capabilities at a mass scale into Urban Air Mobility space

DENSO has partnered with Honeywell to develop hybrid-electric and fully-electric propulsion systems for urban air mobility. By converging their automotive and aerospace expertises, DENSO and Honeywell seek to create propulsion systems that make air travel cleaner, quieter, more efficient and easier to maintain.

Urban air mobility is intended to provide more efficient movement of people and things within cities to improve safety and decrease ground traffic. It also offers opportunities in sustainability, as major advancements in materials, generators and motors, are making
electric-powered flight possible, practical and affordable. Honeywell and DENSO see urban air mobility vehicles as a key component of the future of mobility.
