Leovinci: A Conceptual Dual-Mode Electric Mobility Platform Integrating Road Transportation and Vertical Flight Technologies

Leovinci is a conceptual next-generation electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) vehicle designed to integrate the flexibility of ground transportation with the efficiency of urban air mobility. The project introduces a unified vehicle architecture capable of operating as both a conventional road vehicle and an electrically powered aerial platform through a transition mechanism between driving and flight modes. Unlike many existing eVTOL concepts that primarily function as aerial taxis, Leovinci is envisioned as a personal mobility solution with a strong emphasis on practicality, safety, modularity, and future scalability. The proposed concept incorporates distributed electric propulsion, advanced battery technologies, intelligent flight assistance, autonomous stabilization systems, and integrated safety mechanisms intended to enhance operational reliability under both terrestrial and aerial conditions. This technical concept paper presents the project's design philosophy, vehicle architecture, propulsion concept, operational modes, preliminary performance objectives, safety considerations, and future development roadmap. Rather than introducing a fully engineered prototype, the document establishes a conceptual engineering framework that can guide subsequent research, simulation, prototyping, and experimental validation. Leovinci aims to contribute to the evolving field of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) by proposing a practical pathway toward a dual-mode transportation system capable of reducing urban congestion while maintaining compatibility with existing road infrastructure. The concept is intended to stimulate interdisciplinary research in aerospace engineering, electric propulsion, autonomous control systems, intelligent transportation, and sustainable mobility technologies.
