At the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, Sarla Aviation, a trailblazing aerospace startup that specializes in electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, unveiled its ground-breaking air taxi prototype, Shunya. The business is positioned to transform urban transportation in India with ambitions to start in Bangalore by 2028 and then move on to Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, and other important cities.
Adrian Schmidt, co-founder and CEO of Sarla Aviation, stated, “Shunya is more than just a technological accomplishment; it represents our mission to redefine urban mobility in India.” We want to unlock India’s economic potential and help create a cleaner, more connected future by addressing issues like pollution and transportation congestion. We are dedicated to developing indigenous, top-notch solutions that position India at the forefront of aviation innovation, all while upholding the principles of Atma Nirbhar Bharat.”
Sarla Aviation intends to introduce a free air ambulance service in addition to air taxis, meeting urgent medical requirements in cities with quick medical response times.
Shunya is a living example of Sarla Aviation’s mission to revolutionize urban transportation by using creative, eco-friendly, and effective solutions. The corporation is establishing a new standard for India’s aerospace sector as it gets ready to make its mark and opening the door for a time when air taxis would be a typical sight in the skies over Indian cities.
