Eve Air Mobility signed its second binding order with Tokyo-based, AirX, a leading Japanese provider of innovative air mobility services.  The binding order includes the purchase of up to 50 eVTOL aircraft. This agreement marks a significant step toward advancing sustainable urban air mobility solutions in Japan. Under the terms of the agreement, AirX will integrate Eve’ eVTOL aircraft into its operations, supporting the company’s vision to offer efficient, zero-emission transportation alternatives for urban and regional travel. The initial two aircraft are expected to be delivered in 2029, with the potential for further expansion as demand for advanced air mobility grows.

Johann Bordais, chief executive officer at Eve Air Mobility commented: “Our first agreement in Asia-Pacific, achieved in partnership with AirX in Japan, is more than a milestone; it launches a new era that will redefine urban mobility. Asia-Pacific is poised to help lead the global transformation toward sustainable air transportation, and together we are pioneering solutions that will redefine how cities connect, move, and thrive. This partnership is a bold step toward a cleaner, smarter future for generations to come.”

Kiwamu Tezuka, founder and chief executive officer at AirX stated: "We are excited to partner with Eve Air Mobility to bring next-generation air transportation to Japan. This collaboration reinforces our commitment to sustainability and innovation, and positions AirX at the forefront of the evolving air mobility market."

Megha Bhatia, chief commercial officer at Eve Air Mobility said: “Receiving this award from AirX underscores our shared commitment to elevating the traveler experience. Japan is positioned to be one of the leaders in this region with its strategic focus on AAM to provide cleaner and accessible transportation solutions. Eve’s eVTOLs will be used to serve sightseeing routes and last mile missions in cities such as Tokyo and Osaka.” 

Eve Air Mobility’s eVTOL aircraft are designed to provide safe, reliable, and environmentally friendly transportation, leveraging advanced technology to reduce noise and emissions while enhancing passenger experience. This agreement builds on Eve’s growing global footprint and underscores the increasing demand for sustainable air mobility solutions worldwide.

Eve Air Mobility will host a press conference at 1:00 p.m. SGT in Function Room 4 at the Singapore Airshow.
