- Plans to double production capacity in 2027: Joby signed an agreement to acquire a manufacturing facility in the Dayton, Ohio area, spanning more than 700,000 square feet supporting plans to double production to four aircraft per month in 2027
- Hybrid turbine-electric demonstrator completes first flight: Joby's turbine electric, autonomous VTOL aircraft flew for the first time, just three months after the aircraft concept was announced, alongside a new partnership with L3Harris Technologies

Commenting on Joby's fourth quarter results, JoeBen Bevirt, founder and CEO, said: "2026 will mark a key inflection point for Joby. After a year full of rigorous full-transition flight testing and meaningful progress across every part of our business, we've begun to shift our focus from how and when we'll go to market, to how many aircraft we can produce and where to deploy them.
"As we look ahead to carrying our first passengers in the UAE this year and participating in the White House-backed eIPP program, we're confident now is the right time to scale production so that we're ready to serve the incredible demand ahead."
In a separate event in Dubai earlier today, Joby partnered with Uber to give riders a first look at how they'll be able to book a Joby air taxi journey directly in the Uber app.
