KUNSHAN, China, April 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AUTOFLIGHT has successfully completed China’s first 2-ton-class eVTOL dedicated spring tea transport trial in Guizhou, a mountainous province in western China.

 [ ![](https://mma.prnasia.com/media2/2959164/7.jpg?p=medium600) ](https://mma.prnasia.com/media2/2959164/7.html)

The trial deployed AutoFlight’s CarryAll (V2000CG) – a fully autonomous, unmanned eVTOL aircraft – to transport fresh spring tea between Anshun and Guiyang, two Guizhou cities approximately 120km apart. The unmanned flight crossed rugged mountain terrain in just 37 minutes, a significant improvement over road transportation in the region.

Following the eVTOL air transfer, the fresh tea was transported via high-speed rail for long‑haul delivery from Guiyang to Shanghai, covering a distance of nearly 2,000 kilometers. The integrated "eVTOL + high-speed rail" model enabled same-day delivery, bringing freshly picked tea from remote western mountain plantations to consumers in major eastern cities within 24 hours.

**Core Advantages of the Autonomous eVTOL Solution**

- **Autonomous Flight Capability**: No onboard pilot needed, enhancing safety and operational efficiency for cargo transport
- **High-Speed Performance**: 37 minutes for the 120km mountain crossing, cutting transit time by hours compared to traditional ground transport
- **Eco-Friendly**: All-electric powered, zero operational emissions and low noise, aligning with sustainable development goals
- **High Flexibility**: Vertical take-off and landing capability, no runway required for point-to-point direct delivery

**About the AutoFlight CarryAll (V2000CG)**

The CarryAll (V2000CG) is the world’s first 2-ton-class eVTOL aircraft to obtain **Type Certificate (TC), Production Certificate (PC) and Airworthiness Certificate (AC)** from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC). As a fully autonomous unmanned cargo aircraft, it boasts exceptional performance for a wide range of logistics scenarios:

- Maximum payload: 400kg
- Maximum range: up to 200km
- Cruise speed: approximately 180km/h

**Executive Quotes**

**Li Yun**, CCO of AutoFlight

"This innovative ‘autonomous eVTOL air transfer + high-speed rail trunk line’ model breaks logistics bottlenecks in high-altitude mountainous areas. AutoFlight will join hands with more partners to extend this efficient, green autonomous cargo model to more specialty agricultural producing areas. This will help more high-quality local agricultural products reach national markets quickly, driving regional industrial upgrading and rural revitalization."

AutoFlight’s cargo eVTOL models have conducted flight operations in real-world scenarios, including offshore oil platforms, intercity agricultural product transportation, and emergency fire-fighting, collaborating with global customers to advance the commercialization process of eVTOL. In addition, its 6-seat passenger eVTOL model V2000EM Prosperity is currently undergoing civil aviation airworthiness certification by the CAAC and has entered the Phase IV compliance verification stage.
