The largest fully electric airplane ever built, the Heart Experimental 1 (or Heart X1), is about to make its first flight, which could transform air travel.

Developed by the Swedish startup Heart Aerospace, the airplane was initially designed for ground testing only, but it is now ready to move forward with flight tests, with its first fully electric flight expected in the second quarter of 2025.

This project aims to study and improve the technology for a future model, the ES-30, which will be more efficient and have 30 seats.

The Heart X1 is an important step for sustainable aviation, promising a range of 200 km fully electric and up to 400 km with a hybrid option. The company plans to use the airplane to advance research that could lead to the development of new, sustainable, and efficient air vehicles.

Although no exact date has been confirmed for the test flights, the project’s progress is on track to be realized in 2025. If all goes as planned, the Heart X1 could mark the beginning of a new era for aviation, with the potential implementation of its technology in future aircraft.
