Eviation Aircraft announced that UrbanLink Air Mobility has signed a Letter of Intent for 10 Alice commuter aircraft, with the option to acquire an additional 10 planes. UrbanLink is building a fleet of all-electric aircraft, marine craft, and ground vehicles to provide end-to-end zero-emissions transportation. Operating out of its hub cities of Miami, Los Angeles, and San Juan, Puerto Rico, UrbanLink will deploy Alice as part of its urban mobility solutions.

With orders totaling more than US$ 5 billion, the all-electric Alice heralds a new era of sustainable air travel. Alice’s 9-seat commuter and cargo versions are designed to delight customers and passengers with innovative technology and beautiful design, while also providing carbon-free and cost-effective point-to-point travel.

Andre Stein, CEO of Eviation commented: “Eviation and UrbanLink share a dream of making electric air travel a fact of everyday life. As Alice continues on its path to Entry into Service, partnerships such as this will ensure a future of flight that empowers travelers with convenient, accessible, and affordable air travel that is friendly to the planet.”

Ed Wegel, UrbanLink Founder and Chairman stated: “Our order for Eviation Alice aircraft completes the third leg of our all-electric operating plan, giving us the ability to offer 9-seat, zero-emission flights across our network. Together with our regional eVTOL aircraft and electric sea vessels, Alice enables us to provide seamless, sustainable travel options across the regions we serve.”
