Electric Aircraft Manufacturer Doubles Production Capacity Amid Industry Optimism
Joby Aviation has acquired a second manufacturing plant in the Dayton, Ohio, area, expanding its production capacity to support growing demand for its all-electric eVTOL aircraft. The new 700,000 square-foot facility will supplement the company’s existing sites in Marina, California, and Dayton, and is expected to play a key role in Joby’s plans to double its production rate by 2027. The move comes as the eVTOL industry experiences renewed optimism following the Trump administration’s approval of the eVTOL Integration Pilot Program. This development was first reported by AeroTime.
