BANGKOK, Nov. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EHang Holdings Limited (Nasdaq: EH) (“EHang” or “the Company”), a global leader in advanced air mobility (\u201cAAM\u201d) technology, today announced the successful launch of an urban human-carrying flight event in Bangkok with the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT) and local partners, under the AAM Sandbox Initiative. Air Chief Marshal Manat Chavanaprayoon, Director General of CAAT, personally boarded and experienced the experimental flight, becoming the world\u2019s first civil aviation authority chief globally to ride the pilotless EH216-S on an urban flight. This marks another milestone in EHang\u2019s global AAM commercialization layout.<\/p>\n

On November 24, EHang officially initiated the urban human-carrying flight event under the AAM Sandbox Initiative at the headquarters of Siam Commercial Bank (SCB), a Bangkok landmark located in the city\u2019s central business district. The event received strong supports from senior Thai government officials, with distinguished attendees including Air Chief Marshal Manat Chavanaprayoon, Han Kok Juan, Director General of Singapore\u2019s Civil Aviation Authority, Dr. Arak Sutivong, Deputy CEO of SCB X Public Company Limited, together with nearly 100 Thai business leaders and media representatives. Under widespread attention, the EH216-S completed a series of takeoffs and landings, as well as route flights. Air Chief Marshal Manat Chavanaprayoon and Dr. Arak Sutivong then boarded the EH216-S to experience a pilotless urban flight. The aircraft flew smoothly in the Bangkok\u2019s core business district, with the Director General waving to audience, drawing extended applause.<\/p>\n

These flights mark significant progress for the Thailand\u2019s AAM Sandbox Initiative toward commercial operation and lay a solid foundation for EHang to deepen its presence in the Thai market and launch future commercial services. It also sets a benchmark for the path to commercialization of the AAM industry in Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n

Under the support and oversight of the CAAT, the EHang work team, led by Senior Vice President Hu Longxuan, who oversees commercial operations department, dedicated full efforts to ensure the complete success of this flight event. This marked the first time EHang conducted overseas on-site demonstrations and validation of the EH216-S’s comprehensive emergency scenario safety capabilities. During this collaboration, EHang and CAAT\u2019s UAM team held in-depth discussions on four core pillars: flight safety, product technology, after-sales maintenance, and operating systems. Together they validated the EH216-S\u2019s safety and commercial feasibility through nine extreme scenario tests and four dedicated technical exchanges. CAAT\u2019s team expressed high recognition for EHang\u2019s systematic support capabilities, including continuous airworthiness, full-lifecycle technical support, spare parts supply, professional talent training, and rapid maintenance support.<\/p>\n

This overseas on-site demonstration and verification validated the EH216-S\u2019s reliable performance under extreme conditions and its commercial operational readiness, highlighting EHang\u2019s leadership in autonomous flying technology and end-to-end service capabilities. It establishes a solid technical foundation and regulatory trust, paving the way for the EH216-S to launch regular commercial operations under the Thailand\u2019s AAM Sandbox Initiative.<\/p>\n

As the world\u2019s first pilotless human-carrying eVTOL company to obtain the Type Certificate, Production Certificate, and Standard Airworthiness Certificate from China\u2019s Civil Aviation Administration (CAAC), EHang has identified Thailand as one of its core overseas strategic markets. Since completing Bangkok\u2019s debut flight in November 2024 and launching the AAM Sandbox Initiative with continuous trial operations in October 2025, EHang has consistently advance the initiative with \u201csafety first\u201d approach. As a key achievement of Thailand\u2019s Sandbox Initiative, the EH216-S not only maintained stable performance in point-to-point pilotless flight but also demonstrated strong adaptability to Bangkok\u2019s traffic congestion and tourism scenarios across typical urban environments. According to plans, EHang will collaborate with local partners to gradually expand the sandbox area to popular destinations such as Pattaya, Phuket, and Koh Samui, building a diversified low-altitude route network covering urban commuting and aerial tourism.<\/p>\n

Air Chief Marshal Manat Chavanaprayoon, Director General of CAAT, stated: \u201cThe advanced technology and autonomous safety performance demonstrated by the EH216-S are impressive. This flight demonstration represents not only a significant milestone in the development of AAM technologies which is expected to transform future air transportation systems, but forms part of Thailand\u2019s ongoing efforts to become an Aviation Hub in the region. CAAT is committed to serving both as a regulator and a facilitator to ensure that modern aviation technologies can be safely and effectively implemented. We look forward to seeing Thailand achieve a breakthrough in establishing air routes connecting airports and urban areas. With the 2026 Advanced Air Mobility Symposium organized by International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to be held in Thailand, we expect the country to become a global model for commercialization and large-scale development of AAM in 2026.\u201d<\/p>\n

Luong Pham of Aerial Sea ventures, supporting organization for the event, commented: \u201cThe EH216-S\u2019s successful flight at core Bangkok landmarks such as the royal-owned SCB headquarters, coupled with the CAAT Director General\u2019s personal participation, not only represents authoritative recognition of cutting-edge autonomous technology but also highlights Thailand\u2019s strategic vision and commitment to embracing transportation innovation and developing its AAM ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n

Conor Yang, Chief Financial Officer of EHang, emphasized: \u201cThis event represents a key practical achievement of EHang\u2019s overseas strategy. By continuously advancing human-carrying flights under the Sandbox Initiative in core urban scenarios such as Bangkok, EHang will further assist the Thai government and CAAT in improving Thailand\u2019s AAM operation and regulatory framework. With the support of the CAAT, Thailand is highly likely to achieve the world\u2019s first commercial eVTOL operations using an innovative regulatory approach of \u201csandbox\u201d, creating a demonstration model for Southeast Asia and the world. EHang will continue to provide advanced integrated air mobility solutions to benefit more countries across the globe.\u201d<\/p>\n
