EHang, China’s autonomous aerial vehicle developer, has joined Europe’s Air Mobility Urban – Large Experimental Demonstration (AMU-LED) project, one of the largest European demonstrations of Urban Air Mobility.
The AMU-LED project was initiated by the European Union under the Single European Sky (SESAR) project. The consortium executing the project includes 17 prominent companies and institutions globally, including EHang and industry giants such as Airbus and Boeing.
Throughout 2022, EHang will perform trial operations of the EH216, its flagship two-seat passenger-grade AAV, in three countries: Spain, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.
AMU-LED is a project to demonstrate mobility services with air vehicles and the safe integration of different types of drone operations in urban environments.
Planned for two years with more than 100 flight hours, AMU-LED showcase various use cases for passenger transport in air taxis, cargo transport, delivery of goods and medical equipment, inspection of infrastructures, police surveillance, and emergency services support.
