EVE Air Mobility, the advanced air mobility subsidiary of Embraer, announced on December 19, 2025, that its AAM eVTOL aircraft prototype had completed its maiden flight.
This first flight, which kicks off EVE’s flight test program, took place at Embraer’s test facility in Gavião Peixoto, in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, and went according to expectations.
“We exercised our control laws, verified the integration of the eight lifters and assessed energy management, the aircraft’s dynamic response and noise footprint. The prototype behaved as predicted by our models.” Luiz Valentini, Chief Technology Officer at EVE, declared after the test.
The Brazilian eVTOL developer plans to manufacture six conforming prototypes for use in its flight test campaign, which will be closely monitored by ANAC, Brazil’s Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC), the primary authority when it comes to obtaining the aircraft’s type certificate.
EVE plans to keep pushing the testing envelope further throughout 2026, while in principle targeting 2027 for its AAM eVTOL aircraft certification and entry into service.
This fully electric aircraft, a full-size mockup of which AeroTime had the chance to inspect during the 2025 Paris Air Show, is designed to carry one pilot and four passengers (with luggage) over distances of around 100 km.
