A turboelectric vehicle may include a fuselage and a wing coupled to the fuselage. A wing propulsor may be coupled to the wing. A rear propulsor may be positioned at a rear portion of the fuselage and may be electrically coupled to the wing propulsor. The rear propulsor may be configured to receive power extracted from the wing propulsor.
