The PAL-V Liberty has completed its first Dutch Ministry of Transport (MOT) periodic inspection, four years after its road certification.
“The MOT milestone follows the PAL-V Liberty’s historic approval as the first flying vehicle to be road-legal, solidifying its position as a pioneer in both the aviation and automotive industries,” said the company in a press release.
2In 2020, the PAL-V Liberty received its European road certification, marking a revolutionary moment in transportation history. This approval allowed the FlyDrive vehicle, which can seamlessly transition from aircraft to car, to be driven on public roads. Now, after driving on the European roads for four years, the PAL-V Liberty has proven again to meet the most stringent safety and roadworthiness standards, as confirmed by its first MOT inspection.
“The MOT is an essential part of ensuring vehicles maintain optimal road safety, and passing the inspection demonstrates that the PAL-V Liberty continues to perform reliably as a car while remaining ready to take to the skies. As a flying car, the PAL-V Liberty combines the best of both worlds—offering the freedom of flight and the convenience of road travel, all in one innovative mobility solution.”
PAL-V is now concentrating on finalizing the last stage of air certification (compliance demonstration), said the company.
