The EH216-S, a flagship model of EHang Intelligence, completed the first manned flight of an unmanned eVTOL in Central Asia in Astana, Kazakhstan. Carrying guests such as Nurlan Sauranbayev, the Minister of Transport, it completed multiple route flights during the 2026 Future Games. Kazakhstan established a preliminary national regulatory framework for eVTOL and UTM systems in June this year, and just two months later, the EH216-S completed its maiden manned flight under this framework, demonstrating EHang’s technical prowess in achieving rapid safety compliance in diverse regulatory environments.

Previously, EHang had signed an agreement with Allur Group to jointly develop the UAM market in Central Asia, with the initial phase involving the launch of sightseeing flights lasting 5-30 minutes. The EH216-S’s flight footprint has already covered 23 countries across five continents, with Kazakhstan being the latest addition to its list. China’s low-altitude economic standards are now spreading to the world through EHang’s propeller-driven flights, transforming the vision of unmanned passenger flights from a dream into actual routes over multiple countries.
