EHang Holdings Limited has signed a cooperation framework agreement with Zhejiang Sunriver Culture and Tourism Co, a China A-share listed company, to explore an industrial model that integrates low-altitude economy with cultural tourism in China.
“Under the Agreement, Sunriver plans to purchase 50 units of EH216-S or similar pilotless passenger-carrying aircraft from EHang for its cultural tourism projects based on market development needs,” said EHang in a press statement. “Sunriver has placed a purchase order for five units of EH216-S as the first batch for aerial tourism use cases. The remaining aircraft will be gradually deployed in the tourism attractions under the Sunriver.
“Sunriver, with its parent company Sunriver Holding Group, have invested and operated over 40 renowned tourist attractions in China, including Bailong Elevator and Huanglong Cave in Zhangjiajie City, Hunan Province, Phoenix Ancient Town and Mang Mountain in Hunan Province, Bifeng Canyon in Ya’an City, Sichuan Province, Qiyun Mountain in Anhui Province, and Danxia Mountain in Guangdong Province.”
Sunriver has recently established a subsidiary, Sunriver General Aviation Development (Shanghai) Co with a goal of leveraging EHang’s pilotless electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft to conduct aerial sightseeing services at various tourism destinations under its management. This initiative is expected to create smart low-altitude tourism models for over 40 destinations.
