In the partnership between Eve Urban Air Mobility, a subsidiary of Embraer, and Helisul Aviation, a company that works with helicopters, there are 50 electric vertical takeoff and landing cars, known as eVTOL, with a delivery date set for 2026.

Last week, the company that works with flying cars, Embraer, announced that it received an order from Halo for about 200 units of the eVTOL also for 2026. According to Embraer, the Halo order is the largest flying car order in the urban air mobility sector.

The agreement with Halo also stipulated that the company would work alongside Embraer to create a new flying vehicle operation in the United States and the United Kingdom.

Returning to the agreement with Helisul, initially, the companies will work with helicopters to analyze parameters that may be used in the future by flying cars. The partnership between the companies also promises to develop services and products that enable vehicle operations, such as air traffic management solutions.

According to the Commercial Director of Helisul Aviation, Luis Carlos Munhoz da Rocha, this partnership with Eve, from Embraer, is a source of great joy and satisfaction for his company, given that Eve can anticipate and meet market needs.

He states that with cities growing increasingly and traffic becoming more congested, the partnership between the two companies to build intelligent and practical solutions for air vehicles aims to improve the quality of life in large cities, reducing travel time for people and also reducing pollution.

Meanwhile, the President and CEO of Eve Urban Air Mobility, Andre Stein, states that disruptive urban air vehicles can bring benefits just as aviation brought for longer trips. The partnership between Embraer and Helisul allows for innovation in Brazil’s air taxi infrastructure, which is growing and developing rapidly.

In addition to partnerships with Helisul and Halo, Embraer also announced its partnership with Uber to develop flying cars for commercial flights starting in 2023. Eve has been studying several projects in recent years to create an air taxi infrastructure in the country to utilize air vehicles.
