Embraer Delivers 1,800th E-Jet in Regional Aviation Milestone

Embraer delivered its 1,800th E-Jet this month, a milestone for the Brazilian manufacturer’s regional aircraft program that has defined the 70-130 seat market for two decades.

The delivery, an E195-E2 to KLM Cityhopper, represents the second-generation E2 variant featuring improved fuel efficiency and range.

Market Position

Embraer dominates the regional jet segment following Bombardier’s exit from commercial aviation. The E2 family competes against the lower end of the Airbus A220 range while maintaining strongholds in regional airline operations.

Order backlog stands at approximately 300 E2 aircraft with production targeted at 12-15 monthly deliveries through 2026.
