The full-scale engineering prototype completed its first flight on December 19, 2025 at Embraer's test facility in Brazil, with 50+ successful flights by April 2026. The aircraft features fly-by-wire controls and advanced energy management, with certification being pursued with FAA and ANAC.
How much does Eve eVTOL cost?
Eve eVTOL's price is not publicly disclosed. DEPLOY has no verified price on record for Eve eVTOL from Eve Air Mobility. Physical-AI systems like this are often sold through enterprise contracts or operated as a service rather than at a public list price; check the manufacturer for the latest.
Is Eve eVTOL actually deployed in the real world?
Yes. Eve eVTOL is independently verified in real-world operation on the DEPLOY registry, confirmed at named deployment sites with primary sources: not a concept, render, or demo-only.
Who makes Eve eVTOL?
Eve eVTOL is made by Eve Air Mobility, based in Melbourne, FL, USA, founded in 2020.
Where is Eve eVTOL deployed?
3 verified deployments of Eve eVTOL are on the DEPLOY registry, including at Sao Paulo, Brazil, Higashi-Shinjuku Substation, Tokyo, Japan, San Francisco, California, USA.
Can you buy Eve eVTOL?
Eve eVTOL is at prototype stage and is not yet available for sale.
What are alternatives to Eve eVTOL?
On the DEPLOY registry, comparable aerial robots to Eve eVTOL include Wing Delivery Aircraft, Skydio X10, Zipline Platform 2 (P2), Prime Air MK30.
How does Eve eVTOL compare to Wing Delivery Aircraft?
Eve eVTOL and Wing Delivery Aircraft (Wing · 35 deployments) are both aerial robots on the DEPLOY registry. Eve eVTOL has 3 verified deployments on record. Compare both records for specs, safety, deployments, and verified-vs-claimed autonomy.
Is Eve eVTOL a top aerial?
On DEPLOY's intelligence score, which blends verified deployments, safety, adoption, media, and IP signals, Eve eVTOL ranks in roughly the top 24% of aerial models tracked by the registry.
What is Eve eVTOL's maturity stage?
Eve eVTOL is at the prototype stage on the DEPLOY maturity ladder (research, prototype, pilot, commercial, production). Prototype stage means demonstrations exist but commercial readiness is not yet established.
Is Eve eVTOL safe?
Eve eVTOL has no incidents on record in the DEPLOY registry. This does not constitute a safety guarantee; it reflects the incidents DEPLOY has tracked and verified to date.
