Chinese Drones leads global consumer spending growth with DJI accounting for up to 90% of global consumer drones. 

​

The pioneering DJI is the leading global drone maker with in excess of 70% global market share (including commercial). Innovations include the foldable Mavic Pro and the hand-guided mini Spark. DJI stands for ‘Da-Jiang Innovations’ meaning “great ambition has no boundaries”.  

 

Ehang's completely-electric EH216-S with a top speed of 160 km/h across a 30 km range will operate driverless drone taxi tourism services in Guangzhou and Hefei in June 2025, with fully-autonomous drone taxi services to be expanded to wider Guangdong, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Hubei by 2026, and the company's drones are also engaged in urban deliveries while its Ghost Drone is app-controlled. 

​

Ehang has obtained a globally historic civil passenger fully-autonomous drone licence and China's wider Autonomous Aerial Vehicles will have a $205 billion low-altitude economy by 2025 which will near-double by 2035. 

​

Xpeng's will establish mass productional capabilities for its two-in-one vehicle and drone hybrid 'land carrier' as well as for its wider flying cars by 2026. 

 

Chinese drones are also already involved in rural e-commerce, medical deliveries to islands, emergency response such as fighting fires, disinfecting public areas, and pesticide spraying.
