The prototype of the Czech hybrid VTOL aircraft ZURI in the size of approximately 70 percent of the production version should undergo flight tests at the turn of 2026 and 2027.
Czech startup Zuri from Prague, after several years of progress, has approached one of the most important milestones – its hybrid aircraft with vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) will actually take off. According to current plans, the TD 2.0 functional prototype, approximately 70 percent the size of the production aircraft, is scheduled to undergo flight tests at the turn of 2026 and 2027, and these tests will determine the further direction of the project.
Zuri targets the so-called “advanced regional mobility”.The future production Zuri machine is supposed to have one pilot and four passengers,i.e. a total of five seats, and will fly at a speed of approximately 300 to 350 kilometers per hour. The planned range is around 700 kilometers, including the mandatory thirty-minute reserve, which significantly distinguishes it from many purely electric eVTOL taxis, whose real range is typically around a hundred kilometers.
The technological core of the project is a hybrid electric drive. In the wing and in th
