China’s EHang establishes regional hub in Thailand to support eVTOL ecosystem development

EHang announced the establishment of an overseas regional hub in Thailand to support international electric vertical take-off and landing (“eVTOL”) aircraft deployment, regional resource coordination and project implementation across Southeast Asia and other emerging markets. By positioning aircraft and related resources closer to regional projects, the Thailand regional hub is expected to reduce transportation and coordination time, enable more flexible cross-market allocation, and help overseas projects move more efficiently from preparation to implementation. In the near term, EHang plans to deploy an initial fleet of 25 units of EH216-S pilotless passenger-carrying eVTOL aircraft in Thailand. The regional fleet will support market-specific flight validation, operational preparation and project implementation across Southeast Asia and other emerging markets. The hub is intended to support EHang’s broader product portfolio across passenger mobility, aerial logistics, emergency response and aerial media. The Company has already deployed approximately 1,200 units of GD4.0 formation drones in Thailand for its drone light show business, providing an established operational base for its aerial media activities in the market, with plans to expand the fleet to over 10,000 units. Thailand serves not only as a local market for EHang’s AAM sandbox initiatives, but also as a strategic gateway for the Company’s overseas expansion across Southeast Asia and other emerging markets. EHang’s ongoing flight validation, regulatory engagement and established drone light show business in Thailand provide a practical foundation for the regional hub. Supported by Thailand’s regional connectivity, the hub is expected to strengthen EHang’s ability to serve projects in neighboring markets with greater speed, flexibility and coordination. Building on this regional platform, EHang is advancing its Global Fast Track Program and AAM sandbox initiatives, establishing presence in Thailand, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Malaysia while continuously exploring opportunities in other regional markets. The Thailand regional hub is intended to support these projects in a more responsive and coordinated manner by allocating aircraft and related resources according to local needs and project readiness.
