Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicle company Archer Aviation plans to start air taxi operations in Abu Dhabi in 2026, making the city its first international market outside the United States.
From there, Archer plans to launch an air taxi service across the United Arab Emirates as part of the company’s recently signed memorandum of understanding with the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO).
SAVI was recently launched in Masdar City — a sustainable urban community in Abu Dhabi built by Masdar, a subsidiary of Mubadala Investment Company — to attract foreign companies and support innovation and commercialization of smart and autonomous vehicle technologies.
“Bringing electric aviation to the UAE will help unlock congestion with zero emissions and, in turn, bring millions in foreign direct investment and thousands of jobs to the region over the next decade,” said Badr Al-Olama, acting director general of the Abu Dhabi Investment Office, in a statement.
Many of the vehicles to be launched in UAE will be built in partnership with Stellantis — the automaker agreed to mass-produce Archer’s eVTOL’s in January.
Alongside its MoU with ADIO, Archer also signed agreements with helicopter charter service Falcon Aviation and aviation maintenance company GAL-AMMROC to, respectively, operate its air taxis and provide maintenance, repair and overhaul service support on the ground.
