The AIM Congress 2025 is set to showcase the latest global advancements in mobility and urban transportation as part of its Future Cities Portfolio, with a major highlight being the PAL-V Liberty, the world’s first FlyDrive vehicle.
Taking place from April 7 to 9, 2025, at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC), the 14th edition of AIM Congress will convene industry leaders, investors, and policymakers to explore next-generation transportation solutions.
As urban centers worldwide face mounting challenges such as traffic congestion and intercity travel delays, the emergence of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) presents a transformative solution. The PAL-V Liberty is a groundbreaking vehicle that combines the capabilities of both a car and an aircraft, offering seamless, efficient, and flexible transportation.
“As mobility evolves, we are proud to showcase the PAL-V Liberty at AIM Congress 2025,” said Robert Dingemanse, Founder and CEO of PAL-V.
“The UAE’s forward-thinking approach to advanced air mobility makes it an ideal platform to explore how FlyDrive vehicles can revolutionise transportation. With the PAL-V Liberty, we are bringing the future of mobility to reality—creating seamless, efficient, and flexible transportation solutions for governments, professionals, and private individuals.”
The PAL-V Liberty achieved a major milestone in 2020, becoming the first FlyDrive vehicle to receive European road certification, allowing it to be driven alongside traditional cars. After four years of safe operation on public roads, it has successfully passed its first Periodic Technical Inspection (PTI), reaffirming its safety and reliability as both a road vehicle and an aircraft.
PAL-V is now finalising aviation certification from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), paving the way for the first deliveries of the FlyDrive vehicle to government agencies, businesses, and private customers looking to integrate this advanced technology into their transportation systems.
UAE has established itself as a global hub for smart and sustainable mobility, investing heavily in autonomous vehicles, advanced air mobility, and next-generation infrastructure. The PAL-V FlyDrive platform aligns with the UAE’s vision, offering a scalable and practical mobility solution that could redefine urban transport by seamlessly transitioning between road and air travel.
With traffic congestion remaining a major issue in cities worldwide, the ability to switch between driving and flying provides a game-changing approach to reducing travel time, increasing efficiency, and enhancing overall quality of life.
