Future Flight Global, a pioneer in electric aircraft, has signed a letter of intent with Eve Air Mobility for up to 54 eVTOL aircraft, targeting the Brazil and US markets. This LOI strengthens Eve's backlog of LOIs ranging from global carriers to regional airlines to urban transportation-focused entities such as Future Flight Global.
“We are building a diversified electric aircraft fleet for global deployment across multiple mission profiles,” comments Karan Singh, chief executive officer of Future Flight Global. “Eve's aircraft, rooted in Embraer's 55-year legacy of designing, certifying and supporting commercial and business aircraft, checks every box: strong performance parameters, passenger-first ergonomics, clear certification pathway and scalable production system. We look forward to ANAC certification and deploying these aircraft in Brazil and additional high-demand markets worldwide in the near future.”
“This collaboration with Future Flight Global is a significant step forward for urban air mobility in the Americas. By leveraging Eve's proven eVTOL technology and robust certification process, Future Flight Global gains a powerful platform to deliver efficient, sustainable air travel in high-demand markets such as Brazil and the United States,” adds Megha Bhatia, chief commercial officer at Eve Air Mobility. “We're excited to be its strategic partner in this endeavour, laying the groundwork for substantial future orders as it expands its fleet.”
Headquartered in Washington, DC, Future Flight Global will draw on its deep operational expertise to expand Eve's existing and substantial market share, while leveraging its strength in Brazil to serve that market. Together, the companies aim to transform urban mobility on a global scale by deploying eVTOL aircraft that dramatically reduce travel times and ease congestion in major cities.
This announcement follows the release of Eve's inaugural Global Market Outlook, detailing the growth and demand surrounding the urban air mobility category for the next 20 years. Urban growth and higher traffic congestion are two critical drivers for the category, and this partnership between Eve and Future Flight Global is emblematic of the overall industry expansion that the Global Market Outlook points to.
