Revo Finalizes First eVTOL Routes and Eyes Commercial Flights by Late 2027

Overview

• Revo is completing maps for initial routes focused on São Paulo airport shuttles and high‑demand corridors and says an optimistic start of commercial service could come in late 2027, though that remains conditional.
• The company has a purchase agreement for up to 50 Eve 100 eVTOLs from Eve Air Mobility, the Embraer spin‑off chosen as the platform for the planned service.
• Eve has finished a 59‑flight campaign covering hover and low‑speed maneuvers and must now validate the technically complex transition to forward flight before certification can proceed.
• Brazil’s aviation regulator ANAC is monitoring the work and its director has signaled a commercial‑certification target in the late 2027 to early 2028 window, making operations contingent on that timetable.
• City integration remains a major hurdle: Revo must convert helipads to vertiports, install high‑capacity electrical charging infrastructure, secure multiple municipal licenses, and is using its current helicopter service and a new subscription product to test routes and passenger demand.
