What's been going on at Skai? We're glad you asked! We've been doing lots of testing over here with our advanced air mobility vehicle. Skai is sleek, comfortable and hydrogen-powered, and we can't wait to share more with you.

One distinct advantages that #hydrogen-fueled vehicles like Skai have is RANGE. You can go farther than you could with a gasoline fueled vehicle and need to refuel less frequently. No lengthy charging times like electric vehicles require, and no heavy batteries weighing you down.

While mitigating the pollution that long haul transport produces, #hydrogen is also being used by many big corporations, who are deploying fuel cell industrial trucks and forklifts within their facilities. This includes Amazon, Walmart, Sysco, Whole Foods, FedEx and many more.

Many consumers are already familiar with fuel cell cars, but may not know that there are safety advantages with hydrogen fuel cell vehicles as well. Hydrogen vapors rise, instead of pooling to the ground like gasoline vapors... less likely to catch fire or explode in a crash 💥

Another benefit of using hydrogen to power Skai vehicles? It's more eco-friendly than lithium batteries. Hydrogen fuel cells only emit water, meaning there are no carbon dioxide emissions or air pollutants, which create health and environmental hazards like smog #hydrogenpowered

If you've ever been on a helicopter ride, you know it's not for the faint of heart. Bumpy take offs & landings, plus the loud overhead motor and propellors. Skai is different. With our 6-rotor design, the power and noise are distributed, and are NOT right overhead #hydrogenpower

Skai is #hydrogen powered + the benefits of hydrogen are many, especially when compared with lithium batteries. Hydrogen used in fuel cells has an energy weight ratio 10x > lithium-ion batteries. It offers greater range, while being lighter and with a smaller physical footprint

With more power and less weight, fuel cells give us the ability to fly continuously for up to 4 hours. Far exceeding alternative power source flight times. #AirMobility #Hydrogen #Skai

Come see the future of urban mobility in our VR simulation @LA_CoMotion Nov 14 & 15 in Los Angeles. Experience what it feels like to Skai: Check in, commute over the city and explore how simple, safe and clean transportation can be. #Skai #Hydrogen #VR #CoMotionLA #UrbanMobility

Batteries are a great solution for some applications, but hydrogen's lighter weight and higher relative energy makes it ideal for flight. #Skai #AirMobility #EnergySolutions #Hydrogen #HydrogenEnergy
