Cavalon GyroMotion
A hybrid gyroplane for air and road — when you can't fly, take the road.
The first hybrid gyroplane for air and road
AutoGyro describes the GyroMotion as the first hybrid gyroplane for both air and road — a real flying car. It combines the unique flying characteristics of an AutoGyro gyroplane with an electric road-going vehicle. In its Cavalon version you get the comfort of an enclosed side-by-side cabin and the freedom to choose your route.
Can't travel by air? Take the road instead. Stop for fuel at a petrol station, then fly over the traffic again. Wherever you arrive, you will turn heads.
The last mile to your destination — solved
Every pilot knows the problem: the airfield is not the destination. The GyroMotion lets you cover that final stretch without changing vehicles — on your own wheels.
Certification
The AutoGyro GyroMotion is currently certified only in the Czech Republic and can be flown and driven under a Czech certificate. The manufacturer expects EU certification, and its engineers and certification team are working on approvals in more countries. You can order yours now — we will gladly discuss the current certification status and operation in Poland. More information is available from AutoGyro's Czech partner: gyromotion.eu.
