Inflync
Hybrid-electric tilt-wing ducted fan eVTOL aircraft manufacturer
About Inflync
Inflync is a Shanghai-based aircraft designer and manufacturer specializing in electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles for the advanced air mobility (AAM) market. The company was founded in 2020, with some reports indicating a founding date of October 2023. The founding team, led by CEO Jiang Bin, includes former employees of another Chinese eVTOL startup, Pantuo Aviation, and experts from prominent aerospace and technology firms like AVIC, COMAC, Alef Aeronautics, MagniX, and CATL.
Inflync focuses on a tilt-wing ducted fan technical design, which integrates numerous ducted fans into the wings, enabling vertical takeoffs, efficient cruising, and reduced noise levels compared to open-propeller systems. This design is intended to enhance safety for operations in dense urban environments. The company states it was the first in China to achieve a transition flight with a tilt-ducted wing eVTOL aircraft.
The company's flagship product is the INFLYNC L600 Pioneer, a full-scale, hybrid-electric eVTOL. Unveiled in November 2025, the L600 is designed to carry one pilot and five passengers. It features a hybrid powertrain that combines batteries with a range extender, giving it a maximum range of 600 kilometers and a top cruising speed of 360 km/h. The aircraft is engineered for low-altitude urban and regional travel, producing noise levels below 60 decibels during takeoff. Inflync has also developed a modular interior concept called "Tianfan" or "Sky Sail," allowing for different cabin configurations for business, medical, or cargo applications.
Financially, Inflync has secured significant funding through multiple rounds. In August 2024, the company completed an angel round raising tens of millions of yuan. This was followed by an angel+ round and a Series A round in early 2026, which raised over 100 million yuan, led by investors including LightSilver Capital, Boyan Venture Capital, Shanghai Angel Group, Zhongke Chuangxing, and Songjiang State-owned Investment. These funds are allocated to the development, testing, and commercialization of the L600.
The company's business model targets the short-haul transportation and helicopter markets, with plans to price its flight services comparably to high-speed rail tickets. Inflync has already secured nearly 1,000 pre-orders and intent orders for the L600 from domestic and international clients. Strategic partnerships have been formed with companies like AECC Hunan Aviation Powerplant Research Institute (AERI) for power systems and AVIC General Aviation Service for supply chain management, sales, and service networks. Commercial passenger operations are anticipated to begin by 2028.
