Pivotal, the flying car startup backed by Google cofounder Larry Page, has delayed its first shipments to 2025. Initially scheduled for June 2024, the company struggled to get its Helix vehicle production-ready on time.

The company announced in January that it would ship its first orders to customers on June 10 of this year. That deadline has since come and gone without any word from the company.

A few weeks ago, the estimated ship date on the company website's order page was changed to August-September 2024 and then updated again a few days ago to March-April 2025. A spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.

The company, previously named Opener and now based in Palo Alto, California, rebranded itself as Pivotal in October 2023.

At the time, it also unveiled the Helix, an updated and rebranded version of its flagship eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) aircraft, the BlackFly.
