Helisul Aviation, one of the largest helicopter operators in Latin America, announced its alliance with Eve Urban Air Mobility (UAM) for the acquisition and commissioning of 200 electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft from Eve. Deliveries are expected to begin in 2026. This order represents a great bet in UAM’s market and industry, and positions HALO as the launch partner in the UK and US.
Consequently, both companies have been collaborating to evaluate how to create joint solutions for urban air mobility, using the experience and infrastructure of the classic air taxi predominant in Brazil. The companies plan to add infrastructure for the use of electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOL).
As Andre Stein, President and CEO of Eve Urban Air Mobility, said: «We trust that this mutually beneficial relationship will have a positive impact for many future users and allow both companies to grow their businesses exponentially.»
