About Stuttgart Aerospace
Stuttgart Aerospace is a brand of Harontas GmbH founded in Stuttgart in 2024, headquartered in Waiblingen (Baden-Württemberg). The company is developing the Apollon VX, a hybrid eVTOL vehicle pursued as a concept and prototype, which is intended to be road-legal and capable of vertical take-off and landing using vectored electric ducted fans. The transition between road and flight mode is stated to target a time of under 60 seconds. Technically described are a hybrid-electric energy architecture concept, fly-by-wire flight controls with envelope protection and AI-assisted stability, distributed propulsion, a ballistic parachute system, and autoland capability. The development status is concept and prototype phase; no certification exists. Core areas of activity lie in the fields of eVTOL/air taxi, Urban Air Mobility, aviation, and automotive engineering; communication is conducted in German and English.
