The vehicle features a detachable design separating the land module from the flight module. The land module boasts a three-axle, six-wheel structure and runs on a full-domain 800V silicon carbide high-voltage range-extended platform. With a range exceeding 1,000 km, it can recharge the flight module 5 to 6 times. The flight module (Model X3-F) supports vertical takeoff and landing and is equipped with a single-stick control system for six-degree-of-freedom maneuvering.
As a core player in the low-altitude economy, ARIDGE is advancing smoothly across its business lines, with production capacity already taking shape. Its mass-production factory—the world’s first to use modern assembly lines for aircraft manufacturing—was completed and entered trial production in September 2025. By introducing automotive assembly line methods to aviation, the facility ensures the resources needed for high-quality, scaled delivery of the "Land Aircraft Carrier" and future aircraft series.
On March 5, the XPENG AeroHT Land Aircraft Carrier rolled off the assembly line during batch trial production at the ARIDGE factory, with multi-aircraft test flights conducted the same day. Meanwhile, the Guangzhou Haixinsha All-Space Intelligent Experience Center (Haixinsha Tech Island)—co-built by HT Aero, Guangzhou City Investment Group, and the MIIT Electronic Fifth Institute under a "1+1+N" model—launched joint exploration of low-altitude flight scenarios. This marks a critical leap for flying cars from the "production line" to "real-world flight," officially inaugurating the "Guangzhou Model" for the low-altitude economy.
