This is the second year in a row that Eve will have a presence at SXSW. In 2023, Eve brought its cabin mock-up to display during the exhibition and received a large amount of interest in, not only the technology that could enable all-electric eVTOL flights, but also the benefits of a more efficient and environmentally friendly mode of transportation in cities around the world.
Eve’s all-electric eVTOL aircraft will carry four passengers, luggage, and a pilot up to 60 miles. Utilizing a lift + cruise configuration with eight dedicated propellers for vertical flight and fixed wings to fly on cruise, with no change in the position of these components during flight. The aircraft includes an electric pusher powered by dual electric motors that provide propulsion redundancy while ensuring high performance and safety. While offering numerous advantages including lower cost of operation, fewer parts, optimized structures, and systems, it has been developed to offer efficient thrust with low sound.
