EHang Holdings Limited (“EHang” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: EH), the world’s leading Urban Air Mobility (“UAM”) technology platform company, announced that its EH216-S pilotless electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (“eVTOL”) aircraft system has obtained an Experimental Flight Authorization Certificate (“CAVE”) from Brazil’s National Civil Aviation Agency (“ANAC”). The Company plans to conduct test and trial flights in Brazil to demonstrate the EH216-S aircraft’s cutting-edge intelligent flight technology and cluster management system.
The rapid development of electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft is not only reshaping aerial mobility but also necessitating a parallel evolution in ground infrastructure, particularly vertiports. These specialized airports for vertical take-off and landing aircraft are critical nodes in the envisioned urban air mobility (UAM) network.
