Aero-TV: EmbraerX’S eVTOL - Staking a Claim on the Future of Urban Air Mobility

Legacy Company Moves Into The Realm Of EVTOL

Aero-TV's Rex Alexander spoke with Peter Berger, director of innovation for EmbraerX at AirVenture 2019. Berger said that Embraer is working in partnership with Uber to develop electric vertical takeoff and landing urban air mobility aircraft.

The EmbraerX was unveiled at the Uber Elevate Summit 2019 in Washington, D.C. the new aircraft concept results from a broad range of tests and simulations, aiming at operational optimization for the urban environment, considering high reliability, low operating costs, a lower noise footprint, fully electric powered and progressively autonomous.

In partnership with dozens of air traffic controllers, academics, pilots and industry experts, EmbraerX says it has proposed a very practical, simple and robust urban air space design to allow more aircraft to fly in urban environments.
