The HT Aero predecessor company, HT Aerospace, was founded in 2013. The company specializes in developing low-altitude<br />

aerial vehicles as well as conducting flight tests. The founder of HT Aero and XPeng later cofounded XPeng HT Aero<br />

(soon to be renamed XPENG AEROHT). It completed a Series A round of over US $500 million funding in 2021 which was<br />

the largest single financing for Asian low-altitude manned aircraft so far. HT Aero has developed five generations of eVTOL<br />

prototypes and introduced its sixth-generation aerial vehicle, which will be put into massproduction. The company is planning<br />

to deliver the first aircraft in 2024.<br />
