EHang plans to establish an urban air mobility (UAM) demonstration area at the Jingyue Hi-tech Industrial Development Zone in Changchun, the capital of northeast China’s Jilin Province, and has received a pre-order for 41 of its two-seat EH216-S pilotless eVTOL aircraft from Jilin Aerospace Industry Development Investment Co.

The management committee for the Jingyue Hi-tech Zone recently signed an agreement with EHang in which the two parties pledged to “jointly develop a provincial-level demonstration zone for low-altitude economic development, integrating industrial development, technological innovation, and real-world application scenarios,” EHang said in a company statement. The partners also plan to jointly research, develop, and produce composite materials for eVTOL aircraft components.
