Eve Air Mobility
Eve Air Mobility is developing a 100% electric eVTOL designed for safety, accessibility, and comfort, with a focus on urban mobility and sustainable commuting.
About Eve Air Mobility
Eve Air Mobility is developing a 100% electric eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing aircraft) designed with a human-centric approach to ensure safety, accessibility, and comfort. The design emphasizes minimizing noise and includes features like eight rotors for vertical flight and fixed wings for cruise. The eVTOL is piloted initially but is structured for future autonomous operations.
Services Offered by Eve Air Mobility
Eve Air Mobility is building a comprehensive services portfolio surrounding eVTOL operations. This includes materials solutions, maintenance services, and training programs. The company is also developing operations solutions for eVTOL management, such as flight operations manuals, systems, and network integration. These integrated solutions support the smooth operation of urban air mobility.
Eve Air Mobility Products
Eve Air Mobility's primary product is an eVTOL with a range of up to 60 miles (100 km) and a speed of 100 knots. The aircraft can carry four passengers plus a pilot, with a capacity for six passengers in an uncrewed flight. The design incorporates a lift + cruise configuration with eight lift rotors and one push rotor for cruise, enhancing safety, efficiency, and reliability.
Eve Air Mobility Sector
Eve Air Mobility operates within the urban air mobility (UAM) sector. The company's eVTOL is designed for a variety of urban mobility missions, providing a sustainable commute with a significant reduction in noise compared to traditional helicopters. Eve is also involved in developing Urban Air Traffic Management (ATM) systems to integrate UAM aircraft into low-level airspace.
Eve Air Mobility Collaborations and Projects
Eve Air Mobility has engaged in several collaborations and projects. These include developing a Concept of Operations (CONOPS) with Jeju Air for eVTOL flights on Jeju Island and publishing the Miami-Dade Air Mobility Blueprint. They have also developed a UAM Concept of Operation for London and collaborated with Groupe ADP to prepare for eVTOL operations at Paris-Le Bourget Airport.
Future Plans for Eve Air Mobility
Eve Air Mobility plans to launch its eVTOL service by 2026. Currently, the company has letters of intent for nearly 3,000 eVTOLs. Assembly of the first full-scale eVTOL prototype has commenced, with testing scheduled to begin in 2024. Eve's ongoing initiatives aim to advance integrated UAM aircraft operations in urban settings globally.
