JAKARTA – Eve Urban Air Mobility, a subsidiary of Brazilian aircraft maker Embraer, has received orders for up to 100 eVTOL (vertical take-off landing), or electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft. This statement came from Embraer's press representative on Sunday, September 3.

Avantto, an aircraft operator and fractional proprietor based in Brazil, placed the order, with deliveries scheduled to begin in 2026, the press representative said.

The Avantto fleet already has a wide range of aircraft, including the company's Phenom 300 and Embraer's Phenom 100 jets, according to information on their website.

Avantto's request was first reported in the Sunday edition of the O Estado de S.Paulo newspaper, which cited Avantto Chief Executive Rogerio Andrade as a source.

Neither the newspaper nor the press representatives gave the contract value for the order.

This is the largest order Eve has received from a customer in Brazil, a press representative said. "Overall, Embraer's Eve has orders involving 735 eVTOLs," he added.

This is the second time in less than a month that Embraer's Eve has announced a large eVTOL order.

On September 23, Embraer's Eve also said lessor group Bristow ordered up to 100 eVTOLs, with deliveries expected to begin in 2026.

The aircraft produced by Eve Urban Air Mobility is very suitable to be used as an air taxi. But so far the customer has not stated his exact purpose in this large-scale purchase. If it is for air taxis, then in 2026 Brazil will have a flood of taxis floating in the air.
