Hyundai Supernal S-A2 is an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicle product concept, unveiled at CES 2024.
S-A2 is showcased at the Supernal Vertiport exhibit in CES 2024, situated in the Diamond parking lot by the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Inspired by the beauty and efficiency of nature’s designs, the S-A2 is Supernal’s latest eVTOL. It’s built to anticipate and seamlessly incorporate tomorrow’s technology.
Vertiports play a crucial role in AAM commercialization, acting as the starting, transferring, and concluding points for eVTOL aircraft operations and existing transportation modes.
The silent electric flight allows vertiports to seamlessly integrate into cities, airports, and other locations, connecting with current transit options.
With enhancements in air traffic control and advanced micro-weather forecasting, S-A2 and vertiports will enable mobility beyond the capabilities of current and anticipated ground infrastructure.
Supernal S-A2 features:
Eight tilting rotors – each providing vertical and horizontal thrust
Offers redundancy in all flight phases
Increases aircraft efficiency
Eliminates edgewise rotor flow and the dynamic instability dedicated lift rotors are prone to
Allows for a lighter vehicle and delivers a smoother flight
Powered by all-electric motors for zero in-flight emissions
