Joby Aircraft

Fast, Flexible Travel

Taking off and landing vertically allows us to get you closer to your destination than ever before.

Quiet by design

We designed our acoustic footprint to make our aircraft as quiet as the wind in the trees for city-friendly travel.

Zero operating emissions

All-electric and energy-efficient, making clean, everyday flight a reality.

Six electric motors

Six propellers, four battery packs and a triple-redundant flight computer to enhance safety in the skies.

Sound

Designed to be quiet

Propeller Design

Blade tip geometry was designed to reduce vortex-interaction noise in transition

Sound Waves

Low-intensity sound waves in cruise let our aircraft fade into daily noise

We've spent more than a decade ensuring our aircraft is able to blend into the background as it moves around our cities.

operating emissions during flight

90%

fewer emissions than a helicopter

40%

fewer emissions than the average car

Based on a trip distance of 37 miles in the Los Angeles area. Average car is defined as a gas-powered combustion vehicle. Emissions account for both well-to-tank and tank-to-well (upstream and operating emissions).

97%

of electricity powering our primary facilities came from renewable sources in 2025

We are proud to lead the way in developing electric air taxis for quieter, cleaner skies for all.
