DR1
DR1 is a hydrogen-electric VTOL emergency response vehicle designed to reduce response times and enhance usability for paramedics. With low emissions, quiet operation, and a spacious interior, it features adaptive landing gear, an airborne winching system, and nearly fully autonomous operation. Adjustable seats and ample storage improve functionality, while retractable wings optimise storage space, making DR1 efficient and effective in emergencies.
