PLANA launches new website and unveils hybrid CP-01 eVTOL

PLANA has today revamped its web­site to pro­vide more infor­ma­tion and insights on its ‘inno­v­a­tive tech­nol­o­gy and vision’. The new web­site fea­tures a user-friend­ly design and updat­ed con­tent on PLANA’s air­craft devel­op­ment sta­tus, media releas­es, man­age­ment activ­i­ties, and indus­try trends.

The web­site also intro­duces PLANA’s CP-01 hybrid eVTOL air­craft which com­bines the advan­tages of heli­copters and planes, offer­ing fast, effi­cient, and eco-friend­ly air mobil­i­ty solu­tions.

PLANA will also par­tic­i­pate in var­i­ous online and offline events in Korea and abroad. One of them is the World IT Show 2023, which will take place at COEX in Seoul from 19th to 21st April, where it will share its IT exper­tise, col­lab­o­ra­tion oppor­tu­ni­ties, and social val­ue propo­si­tions with the atten­dees.

“We are excit­ed to launch our new web­site and reveal our CP-01 air­craft to the world,” said Braden Kim, CEO of PLANA. “We hope to increase our brand aware­ness and com­mu­ni­ca­tion by cre­at­ing more engag­ing and infor­ma­tive con­tent and chan­nels for our cus­tomers and part­ners.”

PLANA claims it is devel­op­ing an air­craft that reduces car­bon diox­ide emis­sions by more than 80% com­pared to con­ven­tion­al heli­copters, with a range of 500 kilo­me­tres, able to car­ry a pilot and up to six pas­sen­gers. A scaled-down air­craft is cur­rent­ly being test­ed and val­i­dat­ed. The com­pa­ny recent­ly opened two offices in Sil­i­con Val­ley and Irvine, USA, and is work­ing on the FAA cer­ti­fi­ca­tion and expand­ing its glob­al ecosys­tem.

On Mon­day, PLANA announced that it has won the Pro­fes­sion­al Con­cept cat­e­go­ry of the high­ly-esteemed iF Design Awards, which are held annu­al­ly in Ger­many and are con­sid­ered one of the top three design awards glob­al­ly, along­side the Red Dot Design Award and IDEA.
