Last Wednesday (4), a document was released by the airline citing that the aircraft have the ability to be moved by electricity, hydrogen or even by means of engines hybrids. However, the company highlighted that electric motors are a more affordable option at the moment, even if it is the option that harms the environment.
The market's expectation, as well as Eve's, is that this project will bring revenue of approximately US$ 220 million, which when converted to the currency used in Brazil, the real, means R$ 1 billion.
In November last year, the company carried out a test with the route between the neighborhoods of Barra da Tijuca to Tom Jobim Airport, also known as Galeão.
The plan was built from the beginning with the union of 11 strategic partners, as well as governmental entities, among them the Civil Aviation Agency of Brazil (ANAC), the Brazilian Association of General Aviation (ABAG) and the Department of Airspace Control (DECEA)
