The new aircraft will use hydrogen as fuel. All three concepts are codenamed ZEROe.
The European aircraft manufacturer Airbus has presented three aircraft models that will not emit carbon into the air during flights. This was announced on the website of the concern on Monday, September 21.
“Airbus has unveiled three concepts for the world’s first zero-carbon airliner. Official flights may begin as early as 2035,” the statement said.
It is indicated that the new aircraft will use hydrogen as fuel. All three concepts are codenamed ZEROe.
Some aircraft models will be able to carry up to 100 passengers, others up to 200. At the same time, the aircraft will be able to cover distances of 1,852 km and 3,704 km, depending on the model.
“This is a historic moment for the commercial aviation sector as a whole and we intend to play a leading role in a major transition that has been seen in this area,” said CEO Guillaume Faury.
It was previously reported that an unmanned Airbus helicopter made its first flight. For the first time, the VSR700 prototype spent around 10 minutes in the air at the French test center.
