Airbus, Siemens, Rolls-Royce partner to build a hybrid-electric plane

Hybrid-electric commercial planes could be a reality if Airbus, Rolls-Royce, and Siemens are successful. The three heavyweight companies recently teamed up to work on a technology demonstrator, the E-FanX, that could soar in around three years. They view the hybrid aircraft as a step towards electric flight. Related: Airbus' flying electric taxi is on track to soar next year
