Watch on YouTube

Against the record

EH216-S, from EHang, is at stage 5 of 5 on our ladder: regulator-cleared or mass market. Cleared where approval applies, or widely sold. The latest milestone on its record is from 26 Aug 2026: EHang withdrew its 2026 revenue forecast. After a serious crash of a different, piloted small plane in China in late June, regulators became more cautious and slowed passenger approvals.

This video comes from the maker's own channel, and makers show their robots at their best. The stage above comes from dated public records, not from the video.
