At CES 2026, Leo Flight unveils the propellerless electric JetBike: an FAA Part 103 ultralight hitting 60 mph for 15 minutes. Preorders sold out through 2027.
At CES 2026, Leo Flight publicly showcased its electric JetBike—a compact, propellerless flying vehicle built for a single pilot. Interest is already strong: all units available for 2026 and 2027 preorders are sold out, despite a $99,900 price and a $999 deposit. Deliveries are slated for the fourth quarter of 2026.
Classified as an ultralight aircraft, JetBike does not require a pilot’s license in the United States because it meets FAA Part 103. Even so, the company advises buyers to train—or at least practice in flight simulators—since operating a low-flying machine comes with added risk.
The electric JetBike can reach up to 60 mph (about 97 km/h) and stay airborne for up to 15 minutes, enough for roughly 24 kilometers of travel. Its altitude is software-limited to 4.5 meters above the ground, reinforcing its identity as a flying bike rather than a full-fledged airplane.
The headline feature is the lack of propellers. Lift and thrust come from dozens of air nozzles, a setup that improves safety and keeps noise to about 80 dB. Thanks to its compact footprint, the JetBike can be stored in a standard garage and charged from a household outlet.
Leo Flight has yet to disclose further technical details. Even so, the JetBike is already among the most talked-about exhibits at CES 2026, hinting that personal electric air transport is finally edging beyond the concept stage.
