The partnership between Embraer and Halo includes an order for 200 units of flying electric cars, known as eVTOL, from Embraer. Deliveries are expected to take place in 2026. According to Embraer, the order for the flying electric cars represents one of the largest in the urban air mobility sector. Furthermore, the company states that Halo is its launch partner in both the UK and the US markets.

The partnership between the two companies anticipates that Halo, a leading air taxi operations company in the UK and the US, will work alongside Embraer to create a new flying electric car operation in both countries.

According to Kenneth C. Ricci, the director of Directional Aviation, an investment fund that Halo is a part of, the company believes that Embraer is designing flying electric cars that are well-prepared for initial certification, not to mention that it has a proven track record of production.

According to Ricci, the excellent production, design, and certification of aircraft that Embraer will bring to this eVTOL puts Eve at an advantage in the competitive sector.

For the president and CEO of Eve, André Stein, the partnership is a crucial step for the company to take a position as the global leader in the flying electric car sector. He states that the company is confident that the beneficial partnership with Halo will have a positive impact on various future users, allowing both companies to grow their businesses significantly.

The First International Partnership

The partnership between Embraer and Halo will be the first international collaboration among flying electric car operators and will benefit from the work that Eve has already been doing in the UK market, leading a consortium that is solving operational and regulatory issues to make eVTOL operations viable in London.

The partnership between Embraer and Halo, in collaboration with the “innovation sandbox” program, will result in one of the first operators to collaborate on this work, as well as the continued development of London as an attractive and viable market for UAM operations.
