AirX Signs Firm Order Agreement with Eve Air Mobility for Two eVTOL Aircraft 

Eve Air Mobil­i­ty has 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 announced ear­li­er today (Wednes­day), AirX will inte­grate Eve’s 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, said: “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.”

Megha Bha­tia, chief com­mer­cial offi­cer at Eve Air Mobil­i­ty, added: “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.”

Found­ed in 2015, AirX devel­ops inte­grat­ed solu­tions that con­nect peo­ple to faster, more con­ve­nient, and sus­tain­able air trav­el.

Through its dig­i­tal plat­forms, includ­ing AIROS Skyview and AIROS Char­ter, AirX offers heli­copter sight­see­ing and char­ter ser­vices while active­ly prepar­ing for the deploy­ment of eVTOL air­craft and next gen­er­a­tion fly­ing cars.

Guid­ed by its mis­sion to lib­er­ate human poten­tial, AirX is shap­ing the future of mobil­i­ty by cre­at­ing smarter, clean­er, and more acces­si­ble ways to move across cities and regions.

Kiwa­mu Tezu­ka, founder and chief exec­u­tive offi­cer at AirX, said: “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.”
