Leo Flight turned heads at CES 2026 by unveiling its JetBike, a futuristic electric air speeder designed to let everyday buyers experience low-altitude personal flight without needing a pilot’s license. Built as a compact, single-person ultralight aircraft, the JetBike is engineered to cruise through the sky at speeds of up to 60 mph while keeping operation simple enough for first-time owners.
The JetBike carries a premium price tag of $99,900, with a $999 deposit required to secure an order. Interest is already high: all pre-order units slated for 2026 and 2027 are sold out, and the company expects first deliveries to start in the fourth quarter of 2026.
One of the biggest talking points is how the JetBike fits into the ultralight category in the United States. Because of its size, weight, and overall flight capabilities, it falls under FAA Part 103 ultralight aircraft regulations, meaning a pilot’s license is not required to fly it. Even so, Leo Flight’s concept highlights an important reality: flying can become dangerous in unpredictable weather, changing terrain, or unexpected conditions. Buyers may still want to pursue pilot training or spend time practicing in flight simulators to build safer habits and confidence before taking it outdoors.
In terms of performance, the battery-powered JetBike is designed for short, adrenaline-filled flights rather than long-distance travel. It offers up to 15 minutes of flight time, reaching a top speed of 60 mph (97 kph). That translates to an estimated range of about 15 miles (24 km), depending on riding conditions and how aggressively it’s flown.
Safety and practicality also shape the JetBike’s design. Unlike many personal aircraft concepts, it uses a propeller-free system. Instead of exposed rotors, it relies on dozens of air jets to generate lift and propulsion, a choice intended to reduce the risks commonly associated with spinning blades. This approach also contributes to a reported noise level of around 80 dB, which may be less disruptive than some traditional rotor-based aircraft.
To keep the experience firmly in the “low-altitude speeder” category, the onboard control software limits flight height to a maximum of 15 feet (4.57 meters) above the ground. This ceiling is designed to support controlled, near-surface flight rather than high-altitude travel.
Another advantage is its storage-friendly footprint. Measuring roughly 6.5 by 6.5 feet (1.98 by 1.98 meters), the JetBike is small enough to fit in many garages, making at-home storage and charging part of the appeal for prospective owners. Leo Flight has not yet shared some additional details that enthusiasts will likely want to know, including whether an emergency parachute system is included.
With its propeller-free design, garage-friendly size, and FAA ultralight positioning, the Leo Flight JetBike is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about electric air speeder concepts showcased at CES 2026—especially for buyers who want a new kind of personal mobility that feels like something out of science fiction, but is being sold for real-world delivery starting in late 2026.
