New, Sustainable Air Mobility Commutes Starting in Brazil

Embraer is one of the world's most innovative aviation companies.  Headquartered in Brazil, it is working on changing forever urban air mobility into a sustainable and affordable new mode of travel.  Embraer's subsidiary Eve Air Mobility is partnering with Senna to develop an F1 inspired air taxi.  It's an eVTOL (electric, vertical takeoff and landing) flying taxi named Eve-Senna.  The first locus of operation is Brazil and Rio de Janero. Rio is one of the world's most congested and busiest cities.  Eve-Senna's main goals are to democratize flying taxis by making travel in them inexpensive and accessible. Another key player in the development project is Helisud Aviation, which is one of Latin America's biggest helicopter providers.

Highly Advanced Tech

With Senna, the Eve project is hitting new heights.  The eVTOL is inspired by the founder of Senna, 3-times F1 world champion driver Ayrton Senna.  The EV has a racy, futuristic eVTOL design to provide a unique, airborne ride.  It is all electric and is targeted to hit the market in 2026.  The company is developing it for minimal noise levels as it will be operating in already noisy and congested urban areas.  They also want it to be totally sustainable, all electric and zero emissions.  The parties want to provide proof of concept by flying a route connecting the Rio de Janero International Airport with the ritzy Rio neighborhood of Barra da Tijuca.  They have already begun helicopter simulations of the air taxi route. The intent is to take the concept into global distribution.
