EHang Holdings Limited (EH) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

You're looking at the core strategy for EHang Holdings Limited right now: selling more EH216-S aircraft and services into the existing, certified Chinese market. This is about maximizing the value from the Type Certificate they already secured.

The operational readiness in key cities is ramping up. As of the third quarter of 2025, EHang Holdings Limited had 2 certified operators continuing human-carrying trial operations. These operators safely conducted a total of 1,147 flight missions in the second half of 2025, which included 359 human-carrying flights. This builds on the over 700 safe flights completed in Guangzhou and Hefei during the second quarter of 2025. The company has established over 40 operational sites for the EH216-S in China and overseas. Furthermore, the flagship EH216-S completed its inaugural demo flight in downtown Shanghai, with regular trial operation launched by the Huangpu River at Longhua Airport in preparation for future commercial operations there.

The sales momentum, while subject to payment timing, shows a focus on volume. EHang Holdings Limited delivered 42 units of eVTOL aircraft in the third quarter of 2025, comprising 41 units of the EH216 series and the first VT35. This follows the 68 units delivered in the second quarter of 2025. The company received new orders for over 150 units of the EH216 series in the second quarter of 2025 alone. The cumulative global flight record for the EH216 series stands at over 80,000 flights.

Securing commitments from local partners is a key part of this penetration. The Hefei government has committed comprehensive support valued at approximately RMB 500 million, which includes orders for eVTOL aircraft. The presale price for the VT35 standard version in China was announced at RMB 6.5 million. For comparison on potential route pricing, future fares for a 50-kilometer cross-sea trip are projected at around 300 yuan ($42).

Scaling operations requires personnel. EHang Holdings Limited plans to build a team of about 100 professional ground operators to support scaled commercial operations. This effort addresses a broader national need, as China potentially faces a talent shortage of up to 1 million employees in the low-altitude economy in coming years.

The certified status is the primary competitive lever. EHang Holdings Limited's flagship EH216-S has obtained the world's first Type Certificate (TC), Production Certificate (PC), and Standard Airworthiness Certificate (SAC) from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC). This regulatory lead is contrasted against the national talent shortage, where 1 million employees might be needed.

Here is a snapshot of the recent operational and financial metrics:

The focus on operational readiness is clear, with Hefei Heyi Aviation planning to gradually open to the public through a reservation system starting in December. The company is also developing the EHang Trip ticketing system, with the internal testing version now live for employees to book and experience flights.

The strategy is to convert the regulatory lead into immediate revenue streams in existing certified areas, which is supported by the following operational milestones:

• EH216-S Type Certificate from CAAC obtained.
• 2 certified operators running trial operations.
• Over 1,147 safe flight missions in H2 2025 (to Q3).
• 359 human-carrying flights in H2 2025 (to Q3).
• Plan to verify the first batch of ground operators early next year.
• Goal to build a team of 100 professional ground operators.

Finance: draft 13-week cash view by Friday.

EHang Holdings Limited (EH) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

You're looking at how EHang Holdings Limited is pushing its existing EH216-S product into new geographic territories. This is Market Development in action, relying heavily on the proof points from its home market to gain traction elsewhere.

The push into Western markets, specifically targeting EASA (Europe) and FAA (US) certification, remains a critical, though perhaps protracted, objective. While EHang Holdings Limited has secured its domestic approvals, competitors like Joby and Archer are not expected to complete their FAA type certification before the end of 2025. This sets the competitive backdrop for EHang Holdings Limited's own international regulatory efforts.

To build credibility for international regulators, EHang Holdings Limited consistently showcases its commercial track record within China. By the end of Q1 2025, two operators received Air Operator Certificates from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), enabling commercial human-carrying flights. The operational data is substantial:

EHang Holdings Limited is actively targeting Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian markets, often leveraging regulatory sandboxes or less stringent initial frameworks for demonstration. This strategy is yielding concrete results in terms of flight operations and partnership agreements.

• Thailand: Launched the AAM Sandbox Initiative in October, with continuous trial operations for over one month in Bangkok sandbox areas as of Q3 2025.
• Qatar: Successfully completed human-carrying flights in Downtown Doha, reducing a 30-minute car journey to just 8 minutes between Doha Port and Katara Cultural Village.
• Kazakhstan: Signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in September outlining a phased procurement plan for 50 units of the EH216 series.
• Japan: Delivered EH216 series units to clients in Q2 2025.

Regarding strategic joint ventures for initial route deployment, EHang Holdings Limited is establishing operational centers and local assembly bases, such as the plan in Kazakhstan. The company also has a joint venture in China, Yunfu Yinghang, with Enpower, where the second-phase project targets a production capability of 1,000 units per annum upon completion.

The financial commitment for this international push, which includes regulatory compliance and demonstration flights, is not explicitly detailed as a $15 million allocation for 2025 in the latest reports. However, total operating expenses for Q1 2025 were RMB 110.9 million (approximately $15.3 million). Total operating expenses for Q2 2025 were RMB 172.9 million (approximately $24.1 million). The company is maintaining its full-year 2025 revenue guidance at approximately RMB 500 million.

The company's operational focus in the second half of 2025 has been on supporting existing customers in building regular operations, which led to a temporary slowdown in deliveries, with Q3 2025 seeing 41 units delivered. Still, new orders for over 150 units were received in Q2 2025.

EHang Holdings Limited (EH) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

You're looking at how EHang Holdings Limited is pushing new products into the market, which is the essence of this Product Development quadrant in the Ansoff Matrix. It's about taking what you've built-like the EH216-S-and evolving it or creating something entirely new for existing customers.

Accelerate the commercialization of the long-range VT-30 for inter-city travel and logistics. EHang Holdings Limited is advancing this with the VT35, the upgraded, next-generation long-range lift-and-cruise model. The presale price announced for the standard version of the VT35 in China is RMB 6.5 million. Furthermore, the company has received purchase orders for the VT35 at a unit price of RMB 6.7 million as of the third quarter of 2025. This focus on longer-range aircraft is key for expanding beyond short intra-city hops.

Introduce a dedicated, high-payload cargo variant of the EH216 platform for B2B delivery services. EHang Holdings Limited has the EH216-L model specialized for aerial logistics. We see real-world testing with the VT20 series logistics eVTOL, which successfully completed an intercity round trip cargo delivery between Zhuhai and Guangzhou, covering 83 kilometers in approximately 55 minutes. This demonstrates viability for time-sensitive cargo like fresh seafood and medical samples.

Develop a proprietary, integrated UAM infrastructure management software suite for operators. EHang Holdings Limited is actively co-developing digital UAM infrastructure with partners, aiming to integrate five key networks: air traffic infrastructure, aerial route, communications and navigation, airspace management, and low-altitude service networks. Progress is also steady on the EHang Trip ticketing system to support scaled commercial operations.

Invest $25 million into battery technology R&D to increase the EH216-S's range and endurance. While the specific $25 million investment figure for EH216-S battery R&D isn't explicitly detailed in the latest filings, EHang Holdings Limited is making substantial commitments to its ecosystem. For instance, the strategic partnership in Hefei to establish the VT35 series product hub includes comprehensive support from the local government valued at approximately RMB 500 million, with the total investment agreement estimated around RMB 1 billion to accelerate R&D, manufacturing, and certification. EHang Holdings Limited also made a strategic investment in Inx, a solid-state lithium metal battery technology company, to enhance battery life and lightweight experience for its AAV products.

Offer customized cabin interiors and premium service packages for high-end tourism routes. The flagship EH216-S is already being deployed for urban sightseeing and tourism, such as in Hanzhong. The aircraft features a Luxury Cabin designed for comfort with large windows for a panoramic view. For these short-duration tourism flights, the EH216-S, which has a maximum payload of 220 kilograms, typically operates for flights lasting between three and ten minutes. The suggested retail price for the EH216-S in China is RMB 2.39 million (or $330,000).

Here's a quick look at the product specifications and deployment metrics we have:

The company delivered 42 units of eVTOL aircraft in the third quarter of 2025, including 41 units of the EH216 series and one unit of the VT35. This compares to 68 units delivered in the second quarter of 2025.

• EH216-S has secured three mandatory airworthiness certifications from China's CAAC.
• The company is preparing for scaled commercial operations with 100 professional ground operators planned.
• The Luohu UAM Center spans approximately 753 square meters.
• The Luohu District Plan aims to build 100 takeoff and landing sites by 2026.

The two certified operators have safely conducted over 1,700 operational flights as of the second half of 2025, including 359 human-carrying flights.

EHang Holdings Limited (EH) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at EHang Holdings Limited (EH) moving beyond its initial passenger-carrying focus, which is smart given the current operational ramp-up. Diversification here means applying their core autonomous electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) technology to other high-value, non-passenger segments. This is where we see concrete numbers emerging from their Q3 2025 performance and strategic announcements.

New Uncrewed AAV Logistics and Specialized Services

EHang Holdings Limited is actively expanding its non-passenger business, which includes logistics, emergency firefighting, and urban inspection, alongside its aerial media shows. This strategy is supported by new product development. The VT35, a next-generation long-range lift-and-cruise pilotless eVTOL, is specifically positioned for intercity travel and logistics, expanding beyond the urban scope of the EH216 series. The pre-sale price for the VT35 is listed at CNY 6.5 million per unit. For logistics and inspection, the multifunctional GD4.0 drone is a key asset. This platform is being positioned to shift from performance-only revenue to hardware sales, having already secured firm orders for 3,000 units and customer purchase intentions exceeding 10,000 units.

The focus on specialized applications is clear in their emergency response efforts. They have developed an integrated system linking small drones with command and control for rapid response, with municipalities like Fangshan District in Beijing showing strong interest in project planning and demonstration drills.

Establishing Service and Support Infrastructure

Scaling any complex technology requires a service backbone. EHang Holdings Limited is laying the groundwork for service delivery by focusing on personnel. They plan to verify the first batch of ground operators early next year (2026), with a goal to build a team of about 100 professional ground operators to support scaled commercial operations and service delivery. While specific financial data on a global Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) service center network is not yet public, the commitment to building a professional operating crew signals the intent to support a growing fleet across various use cases.

Financial Snapshot and Non-Passenger Revenue Context

The company is maintaining its full-year 2025 revenue guidance at RMB 500 million. This guidance relies on scaling both passenger and non-passenger segments. The non-passenger efforts, like the GD4.0 sales, are designed to quickly recover R&D investments and generate product-level margins. The company ended Q3 2025 with a strong liquidity position, holding RMB 1.13 billion in cash and cash equivalents, restricted short-term deposits, and short-term investments, which provides the flexibility to fund these diversification projects.

Here's a look at the financial context surrounding the product portfolio driving this diversification:

Defense and Emergency Response Exploration

EHang Holdings Limited is exploring applications for its AAV technology with defense and emergency response in mind, specifically through its firefighting UAVs and integrated rapid-response frameworks. The company is actively engaging in international regulatory sandboxes, which often include government or public service applications. For instance, they have active engagements/MOUs across Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, including trial operations in Thailand and completing pilotless intra-city flights in Qatar. These international efforts serve as real-world testing grounds for applications that could translate into defense or large-scale public safety contracts.

Key strategic moves supporting the diversification strategy include:

• Secured 3,000 firm orders for the GD4.0 drone.
• VT35 design range of $\geq$200 km for longer-haul logistics.
• Plan to train 100 professional ground operators by early 2026.
• Q3 2025 Cash Reserves: RMB 1.13 billion.
• Full-Year 2025 Revenue Guidance: RMB 500 million.
