Lilium has just performed a successful test flight of their fully electric vertical take-off and landing jet. The company is aiming to eventually introduce air taxis to the general public, which will hold up to five passengers. The jets are able to reach max speeds of 186 miles per hour and have a flying range of about 186 miles on a fully charged battery.

Lilium plans to have its first manned flight in 2019 and the taxi service available to consumers in 2025.
