EHang (EH) expanded its Global Fast Track Program to Vietnam after partner HungViet signed a Hanoi aircraft-testing memorandum.
Vietnam is the program’s second country after Sri Lanka, and Hanoi is EHang’s first city-level partnership there. HungViet’s memorandum of understanding with the Hanoi Department of Science and Technology sets out proposed regulatory sandbox testing centered on EHang’s EH216-S pilotless passenger aircraft. EHang will provide aircraft, operating technology and training support. HungViet will prepare the application and commit resources starting in October 2026. Controlled flights at Hoa Lac Hi-Tech Park require an authorization decision. The phased plan also covers traffic-management and operations-control models and verification of passenger and cargo aircraft. EHang plans to pursue opportunities in other Vietnamese cities.
EHang (EH) presented its Global Fast Track Program at the ICAO DGCA/61 conference in Kuala Lumpur, highlighting a regulatory sandbox pathway to accelerate pilotless eVTOL Advanced Air Mobility deployment across the Asia Pacific.
Drawing on the EH216-S aircraft’s full set of certifications, nearly 100,000 autonomous safe flights in 23 countries, and experience at over 40 sites in China, the Program is expected to compress market-entry cycles from years to months while keeping civil aviation authorities in full control.
