Embraer-spun-out eVTOL developer building a lift-and-cruise four-passenger air taxi with one of the largest letter-of-intent order books in the industry.
Eve Air Mobility (NYSE: EVEX) was spun out of Brazilian aerospace giant Embraer in 2020 and is dual-headquartered in Melbourne, Florida and São José dos Campos, Brazil. Its flagship product is a lift-and-cruise eVTOL with eight dedicated lift rotors and twin pusher propellers — a simpler architecture than the tilting designs Joby and Archer pursue, with the trade-off of slightly lower cruise efficiency.
Eve has accumulated letters of intent for over 2,800 aircraft from operators including United Airlines, Blade, Bristow and Republic Airways — one of the largest order books in the eVTOL sector.
Canadian-American developer of Journey, a slowed-rotor compound (SRC) eVTOL that combines a helicopter-style rotor with a fixed wing for efficient cruise.
UK-based developer of the VX4, a piloted four-passenger eVTOL targeting EASA and UK CAA certification with backing from American Airlines, Avolon and Virgin Atlantic.
