TheEmbraer E-Jet E2 family is a series of four-abreastnarrow-bodyregional jet airliners designed and produced by the Brazilian aircraft manufacturerEmbraer. Thetwinjet is an incremental development of the originalE-Jet family, adopting the more fuel-efficientPratt & Whitney PW1900G, ageared turbofan engine. The aircraft family comprises three variants that share the same fuselage cross-section with different lengths and feature three different redesigned wings,fly-by-wire controls with newavionics, and an updated cabin. The variants offermaximum take-off weights from 44.6 to 62.5 t (98,000 to 138,000 lb), and cover arange of 2,000–3,000 nmi (3,700–5,600 km; 2,300–3,500 mi).
The program was launched at theParis Air Show in June 2013. The first variant, the E190-E2, made itsmaiden flight on 23 May 2016 and flight testing proceeded to schedule with little issue. It receivedcertification on 28 February 2018 before entering service with launch customerWiderøe on 24 April. Certification of the larger E195-E2 was received during April 2019;Azul Brazilian Airlines was the first airline to operate this model. The smaller E175-E2 was originally set to be delivered in 2021, but has been delayed past 2027 due to a lack of demand.Regional airlines in the United States were a major customer of the first-generation of E-Jets, howeverscope clause agreements have prevented them from purchasing the heavier E175-E2.
The E-190 E2 and E-195 E2 variants compete with theAirbus A220 family aircraft, particularly its smallerA220-100 variant. As of April 2024[update], a total of 306 E-Jet E2s have been ordered with 114 delivered and all are in commercial service. Sales for the E-Jet E2 program have been slow, particularly in light of the issues with the weight of the E175-E2.
During the early 2010s, theregional jets segment of the international airliner market grew more competitive with the announcement of theAirbus A320neo and theBoeing 737 MAX, thus it was thought that Embraer would have to respond or else lose the competitiveness of theE-Jet family through inaction.[3] In 2010, Embraer was reportedly considering directly challenging theBombardier CSeries (now A220) by developing a clean-sheet five-abreast airliner for 100 to 150 passengers. The alternative option was to somehow improve the E-Jet family to maintain its attractiveness to customers.[3]
In November 2011, Embraer announced at the Dubai Air Show that it had committed to developing new generation of its E-Jet family.[4] This option was both lower risk and lower cost than pursuing a clean sheet design.[3] At the time, Embraer reportedly foresaw a demand for 6,400 commercial jets with capacity of up to 130 seats over the following 20 years. The smallest of the new variants, theE-175-E2, seats up to 88 passengers in a single class configuration, the medium-sizedE-190-E2 seats up to 120 passengers, while the largest model, theE-195-E2 seats up to 150 passengers.[3] During the late 2000s, Embraer had studied an aircraft of such capacity, dubbed theE-195X, but had discarded the concept in 2010 in light of degraded aircraft performance in the absence of a re-engine. On account of its poor sales and decreasing demand for 70 seat jets, a redesigned counterpart to the E-170 was not pursued.[3]
One key feature of these new variants would be more efficient engines with larger diameter fans; several large engine manufacturers,GE Aviation,Pratt & Whitney, andRolls-Royce, were all evaluated by Embraer as possible suppliers.[5] During January 2013, it was announced thePratt & Whitney PW1000G, ageared turbofan, had been selected to be the exclusive engine of the E2.[6] Embraer commercial aircraft president Paulo Cesar de Souza e Silva noted that the PW1000G was the best suited engine for the performance sought by customers.[7] The selection of the PW1000G is likely to have been eased by the parallel development of the smaller PW1200G engine for theMitsubishi Regional Jet as well as the larger and more mature PW1500G for the Airbus A220.[3]
The E2 family made various improvements in its performance, such as a reducedspecific fuel consumption, lower emissions and noise output, minimised maintenance costs, along with the use of a new aluminum orcarbon fiber-based wing.[8] These wings had a higher aspect ratio, a longer wingspan, and were equipped withraked wingtips instead ofwinglets.[3] In early 2013, Embraer referred to this project as being "the E-jets second generation".[9] During June 2013, the $1.7 billion program was launched at theParis Air Show, citing strong customer demand.[10][11]
The development programme made extensive use of digital model simulations and static test rigs, enabling rapid progress to be made early on.[8] By May 2016, less than three years after being launched, the E2 had 640 commitments from various airlines and leasing companies, 267 of which were firm orders while 373 were options and purchase rights.[8]

On 25 February 2016, the first E-Jet E2, an E190-E2, was rolled out. It performed itsmaiden flight fromSão José dos Campos on 23 May 2016, three months ahead of schedule.[8] It flew for three hours and twenty minutes toMach 0.82, climbed to 12,000 metres (41,000 ft), retracted thelanding gear andflaps, and engaged thefly-by-wire in normal mode. It flew earlier than the previously anticipated second half of 2016. The program had fewer challenges than expected and introduction was then planned in the first quarter of 2018. The airplane was slightly below expected weight and the other two E190-E2prototypes should fly within a year.[2]
On 8 July 2016, the second prototype made its maiden flight; this initial flight lasted two hours and 55 minutes and was incident-free. The first E-Jet E2 flew from Brazil toFarnborough Airshow just 45 days after its maiden flight, demonstrating maturity and confidence in the design.[12] By April 2017, 650 hours of flight tests had been completed and the program was reportedly on schedule. Embraer sought to guarantee a 99% schedule reliability in the first year of service.[13] By June 2017, half of theflight testing had been completed; the aerodynamics were reportedly better than predicted and the E190-E2hot and high performance was also better than anticipated.[14]
The E195-E2'sMTOW increased to 61,500 kg (135,600 lb) and itsrange to 2,600 nmi (4,800 km).[15] In June 2017, the four E190-E2s and the single E195-E2 - which was presented at the 2017Paris Air Show - had made more than 900 flight-test hours, mostly by the E190-E2s.[16] In July 2017, the five aircraft had flown 1,000 flight-test hours while the E190-E2 had accomplished 55% of its test campaign.[17] In January 2018, 98% of the test campaign was completed with 2,000 flight hours.Fuel burn was 17.3% lower than for the E190, up from 16% predicted, while range had increased by 750 nmi (1,390 km) from hot-and-high orshort runways: 1,600 or 2,200 nmi (3,000 or 4,100 km) fromMexico City orLondon City, andnoise margin to Stage 4 was 3 EPNdB better than specification at 20 EPNdB.[18]
On 28 February 2018, the E190-E2 received itstype certificate from theNational Civil Aviation Agency of Brazil (ANAC),Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) andEuropean Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).[19] The first production engines for the larger variant were delivered in February 2019 and should deliver a 24% reduction in per-seat fuel burn compared with the E195.[20] The E195-E2 obtained its type certification in April 2019.[21]

Inspired by theautomotive industry's production of multiple models on the same line, Embraer proposed building the E190/195-E2 alongside the original E175/190/195 at a steady rate of eight aircraft per month by the end of 2018. Production of the original E-Jet family was projected to slow if assembly of the E175-E2 had started in 2021.[22] As Embraer transitioned from its previous E-jets to the upgraded E2, it was expecting to deliver 85-95 airliners in 2018 with a negative $150 millionfree cash flow, less than in 2017 with 78 deliveries in the first nine months with a cash outflow of $700 million: return toprofitability will take at least three years once the program investment is reduced and the productionramp up is complete.[23] Hybrid stations capable of work on either the E1 or E2 were more automated, moving to 90% automated drilling and riveting for the E2 wing.[24]
Elements such as the cabin were examined from a production standpoint relatively early in the design process, which included the involvement of external suppliers as well. Embraer opted for a sole-source solution for the cabin; this approach reportedly enabled more aggressive deals to be secured from key suppliers and thus lowering costs while also easing integration by reducing the number of suppliers involved.[25]
In November 2017, the E2 was forecast to account for 10% of Embraer's airliner deliveries in 2018 ahead of a planned rise in 2019.[26][27] Embraer thought Airbus would not be able to lower the A220 supply chain costs enough to make it profitable and viewed the A220 as a heavy, expensive and long-range aircraft. Embraer hoped the E2's operational capabilities would win a majority of themarket share as commitments were hoped to follow certification and entry into service.[26] Embraer delivered 101 airliners in 2017, down from 162 in 2008, but targeted delivering 14 E2 monthly or even 16 or 18.[24] Throughout 2022, Embraer worked to ramp production at its São José dos Campos facility, hiringToyota to help improve efficiency on the E-Jet line using lessons from theToyota Production System. During the fourth quarter of that year, deliveries surged to 80 aircraft, pushing Embraer's full-year deliveries to 159, up from 141 delivered in 2021.[28]

Aftertype certification, the first E190-E2 was delivered to launch operatorWiderøe in April 2018, configured with 114-seat in single-class, followed by deliveries forAir Astana and ChineseGX Airlines. Before the aircraft were delivered, Embraer announced that some of the initial E-Jet E2s will need to be retrofitted due to the shorter life of thecombustor in theirPratt & Whitney PW1900G engines. Abusiness class is developed with a 2+2 staggered seat layout offering a seat pitch of up to 137 cm (54 in), available from mid-2019.[29]
Embraer targets a 99% dispatch reliability after 12 months and 99.5% after four years while the E1 took 10 years to achieve its targeted reliability.[24] On 4 April 2018, Widerøe took delivery of its first E190-E2 inSao Jose dos Campos.[30] It was introduced betweenBergen andTromsø,Norway on 24 April 2018.[1] By June 2018, the first three E190-E2s delivered to Wideroe accumulated 413 flight hours and 332 cycles, an average of 6.57 cycles per day and an average stage length of 1.28 hours, with a 99.35% dispatch reliability and a 97.74% schedule reliability.[31] Widerøe had a dispatch reliability of 98.5% after its first year of operation.[32] The E2 series have receivedETOPS 120 approval from Brazilian, American and European regulators as of March 2024.[33]
In December 2017, Boeing and Embraer were discussing a potential combination.[34]On 5 July 2018, Boeing and Embraer announced aMemorandum of Understanding to establish ajoint venture, in which Boeing would hold an 80% stake, to produce and service Embraer's commercialairliners, including the E-Jet E2.[35] Aviation industry analysts noted that the deal would be good for both companies, as Boeing needed smaller aircraft, like the E-Jet and E-Jet E2 families, and Embraer needed the marketing power of a larger company as the E-Jet E2 family was selling slowly.[36]
On 26 February 2019, the partnership was approved by Embraer'sshareholders,[37] and the new joint venture was waiting forregulatory approval. On 24 April 2020, Boeing terminated the deal, stating that Embraer did not satisfy the conditions of the agreement.[38] Embraer rejected Boeing's reasons, saying the company sought to avoid its commitments and said it would pursue "all remedies against Boeing for the damages incurred,"[39] which industry analysts believe may include damages for orders that were lost while customers were waiting for the deal to close.[40]

The E-Jet E2 family is based on the first generationE-Jet: its wing is redesigned, and it introduces newpylons,landing gear,horizontal stabilizers,cabin,cabin air system,air cycle machine,bleed air system, and a newfly-by-wire system.[41] The E2 is exclusively powered by thePratt & Whitney PW1000G Geared Turbofan engine; in comparison to traditional powerplants, the PW1000G offers improvements in fuel burn, pollutant and noise emissions, and operating costs via its lower fan pressure ratios and greater bypass ratios, achieved via the uncoupling of the fan from the low-pressure compressor and the low-pressure turbine.[42] In addition to the main engines, theauxiliary power unit is also supplied by Pratt & Whitney.[43]

The raised, 11:1 aspect ratiogull-wing partially accommodate the 2.01 m (79 in) diameter geared turbofan engine, larger than the CF34 engine by 66 cm (26 in) while thetrailing arm landing gear is taller for 23–25 cm (9.1–9.8 in) higher doorsills, giving a 5 cm (2.0 in) lowernacelles than the E1.[44] The wing remains broadly similar to that of the E1, the main difference being the use of single-slottedflaps instead of the more complex and drag-generating double-slotted arrangement while the engine pylon is also shorter. The adoption of a composite wing was considered but found to be not yet economically justifiable.[24] The wing structure was lightened by 200 kg (440 lb) due to the fly-by-wire ailerons, also used when braking, avoiding larger wheels and brakes.[24] Thehorizontal stabilizer was reduced from 26 m2 (280 ft2) on the E190 and E195 to 23 m2 (250 ft2) on the E2 jets.[45]
Embraer targeted 16 to 24% lowerfuel burn and 15–25% lower maintenance cost per seat.[46] In the E190-E2, of the 17.3% better fuel burn, 11% comes from thegeared turbofan, 4.8% from the improved aerodynamics of the new highaspect ratio wing and 1.5% from thefly-by-wire's 15% smaller tail surfaces.[44] Over a 600 nmi (1,100 km) trip and with a US$72 fuel barrel, Embraer estimates a 97-seat E190-E2 trip cost is 7% lower for a 1% higher seat cost than a 106-seat A220-100, a 120-seat E195-E2 has a 2% higher trip cost but a 10% lower seat cost and 10% lower trip cost and 3% lower seat cost than a 129-seat A220-300; and while a 97-seat E190 had an 18% higher seat cost than a 150-seatA320 and a 23% lower trip cost, an E190-E2 has a 30% lower trip cost for an 8% higher seat cost than a 150-seatA320neo, while an E195-E2 has the same seat cost but 20% lower trip cost.[47] In October 2018, Embraer raised its E190/E195-E2 seat or trip costs claim to roughly 10% better than the A220.[48]
The cabin of the E2 was designed around customer requirements that called for greater robustness, flexible reconfiguration, and improved maintainability.[25] The lighting is entirely byLEDs; they can be controlled via the integrated cabin management system along with other functions such as cabin temperature control, water and waste system monitoring, moving map, flight attendant calls, cabin systems power, and audio digital playback amongst others. The interior featuresmodular provisions that enable the future installation of new equipment and whole systems relatively easily and quickly either while in the original production process or mid-life retrofitting.[25] Many interior elements of the cabin, such as panels, bins, galley elements, and lavatories, are provided by EZ Air, ajoint venture betweenZodiac Aerospace and Embraer.[25] In comparison with the E1 family, the cabin side walls were replaced with slimmer counterparts to gain 2.5 cm (1 in) on each side while new overhead bins are 7.6 cm (3 in) deeper.[24] Baggage bins have been enlarged by 40%.[49][50]
The E2 features aclosed loop fly-by-wire flight control system which reduces weight, increases fuel efficiency, enhances control and increases safety byfull envelope protection in all flight phases compared to the first E-Jet.[51] The fuel savings of the now closed loop fly-by-wire control come from the enhanced flight stability and the resulting increased lift (lower tail downward force) and weight savings anddrag reductions related to the 26% reduction in the horizontal tail (tailplane) size.[52] The Primary Flight Control System is supplied byMoog Inc.[53] TheHoneywell Primus Epic 2 avionics suite is used across the family, which aids in maintaining commonality with the E1.[8][54] The cockpit is equipped with landscape displays and advanced graphics capabilities via this suite.[3]
Basicmaintenance inspections occur every 1,000 flight hours, up from 850 on the E1, while the intermediate check interval grew to 10,000 flight hours from 8,500.[18] The heavy-check downtime was reduced by 15% from the E1, no out-of-phase tasks are required, and control and corrosion prevention is required every eight years with 82 tasks down from 240.[55]
On 3 December 2018,Air Astana received its first E190-E2 of an order of five, to replace nine E190LR used on domestic and regional routes since 2011.[56]
On 31 October 2019,Helvetic Airways became the fourth airline to take delivery of an E2 aircraft and the third (after Widerøe and Air Astana) to receive an E190-E2 aircraft, configured in a single-class layout with 110 seats.[57] On 1 November 2019, Helvetic Airways made their first revenue flight with the E190-E2. The inaugural flight, LX850, was a 336 nmi (623 km), 95-minute leg fromZürich toBremen.[58]
On 21 November 2019, Binter Canarias became the fifth airline to take delivery of an E2 aircraft and the second (afterAzul Brazilian Airlines) to receive an E195-E2 aircraft, configured in a single-class layout with 132 seats.[59] On 13 December 2019, Binter Canarias made their first revenue flight with the E195-E2, which was to depart fromGran Canaria at 11:35 and to arrive atSal at 14:00.[60][61]
On 30 December 2019,Air Kiribati received its first E190-E2 of an order of two, becoming the fourth airline to take delivery of an E190-E2 aircraft. The airliner, configured in a two-class layout with 92 seats (12 business and 80 economy class), is to serve destinations throughout the vast expanse ofKiribati, including nonstop fromTarawa toKiritimati (Christmas) Island (the current domestic flight from Tarawa to Kiritimati requires an international stopover inFiji).[62]
The E175-E2 (ERJ 190-500) model is the smallest in the E-Jet Second Generation family. The E175-E2 will be extended by 60 cm (24 in) from the E175, allowing for the addition of one seat row and a capacity up to 90 passengers. In 2013, the aircraft was expected to cost US$ 46.8 million.[63]
While thefirst-generation E175 proved popular withregional airlines in the United States, the weight of the E175-E2 has prevented sales to these customers.Scope clause agreements between mainline carriers and their pilots unions prevent these airlines from contracting with regional airlines to operate aircraft withmaximum takeoff weight exceeding 39,000 kg (86,000 lb). The E175-E2 exceeds this limit by 5,400 kg (12,000 lb), due to its heavier geared turbofan engines.[64][65]
The E175-E2 prototype first flew on 12 December 2019 from São José dos Campos, for 2 hours and 18 minutes, starting a test and certification campaign that was expected to take 24 months and involve two additional aircraft.[66] At that time, Embraer said it believed there would be strong demand for the jet from outside North America,[66] but as of 2023[update] the company had received no orders for the variant.
First delivery was initially scheduled for 2021.[65] It has been repeatedly delayed and in February 2022, Embraer announced that it would halt development of the E175-E2 for three years, with deliveries expected to begin between 2027 and 2028.[67]
The E190-E2 (ERJ 190-300 STD) keeps the original E190 36.24 m (119 ft) length and has a singleoverwing exit per side. Powered by the 98 kN (22,000 lbf)PW1900G which has a 190 cm (73 in) fan for a 12:1bypass ratio. Thealuminum wing span increased to 33.7 m (111 ft) for the highestwing aspect ratio of any airliner, just over 11, while the larger E195-E2 has a longer wingtip and the smaller E175-E2 has a downsized wing. It was moved forward to shift thecenter of gravity envelope aft to reduce thehorizontal stabilizer downforce, loweringfuel burn by 1.5%. Thetrailing link mainlanding gear has wheel doors to reduce fuel consumption by 1% and is 51 cm (20 in) taller to provide enough engine ground clearance. The E2 have 75% new parts,closed-loop controls fly-by-wire instead of theopen-loop type in the E1 gaining improved maintenance intervals. For E1-rated pilots, the transition to the new type need 2.5 days with nofull flight simulator, having similarHoneywell Primus Epic 2 avionics.[68] The E190-E2 (ERJ 190-300) has a 5 m (16 ft) wider wingspan but otherwise is close in size to the E190, with up to 114 seats in a single class configuration.[a]
The E190-E2 unit cost was US$53.6 million in 2013.[63] Embraer had it certified on 28 February 2018.[19] Certification needed 46,000 test hours on ground and 2,200 in flight.[68] Due to better than expected fuel burn during tests, in January 2018 Embraer increased the range to 2,880 nmi (5,330 km), and Bombardier tried to implicate it in theCSeries dumping petition by Boeing as it could attain a 2,900 nmi (5,400 km) range.[73] It entered service withWiderøe on 24 April 2018.[1] In 2018, a newly delivered E190-E2 was worth $34 million, $3 million more than the E190, falling to $20 million in seven years, a 40% decline to be compared with 30% projected for anA320neo over the same timeframe.[74]

The E195-E2 (ERJ 190-400 STD) is extended by three seat rows from the E195 by 2.85 m (9.4 ft) in length, accommodates up to 150 seats. The E195-E2 is 5.26 m (17.3 ft) longer than the E190-E2 and has dualoverwing exits per side. The variant has a unit cost of US$60.4 million in 2013.[63]
In February 2016, Embraer announced that it had decided to increase the E195-E2's wingspan by 1.4 m (4.6 ft) for greater lift, along with aMTOW increase of 2 t (4,400 lb) to extend itsrange by 450 nmi (830 km) at sea-level starts, and 250 nmi (460 km) inhot and high conditions.[76][77] It competes with theAirbus A220-300,[78] at a lower unit cost. As well, Embraer claims E195trip costs are 22% lower than a 154-seat A320neo and 24% below a 160-seat 737-8 - but airlines install more seats, wideningseat costs further apart than the 6% and 8% quoted by Embraer.[24]
The variant rolled out on 7 March 2017 andAzul was confirmed as its launch operator.[75] It first flew on 29 March 2017, ahead of the previously scheduled second half of the year.[79] Embraer showcased the prototype at theParis Air Show in June 2017 and planned for it to enter service in the first half of 2019.[80] By January 2019, the flight-test program preliminary results showed the E195-E2 could end up being a little above specifications at introduction.[81] It was certified on 15 April 2019, with a fuel burn 1.4% less than originally specified for 25.4% less per seat than the E195.[21]Binter Canarias was its European launch customer, taking delivery in late 2019.[82]
On 12 September 2019, Embraer delivered its first E195-E2 to Azul through lessorAerCap, configured with 136 seats in a single class.[83] On 22 July 2022, an E195-E2 landed atLondon City Airport (LCY) for the first time.[84] The variant received EASA certification in November 2023 making it the largest aircraft cleared to operate from the small airport.[85]
On 23 July 2024, during theFarnborough International Airshow, Embraer announced performance upgrades on the E195-E2. Fuel burn was improved by 2.5%, and the MTOW increased to 62,500kg. Both of these changes enabled a range increase from 2,600 nmi to 3,000 nmi.[86]
The E195-E2 can produce a "whale sound" during takeoff and landing. This occurs when the engine causes the combustion chamber to resonate at a certain frequency. It is a normal behavior, but Embraer has announced that they would redesign the combustion chamber to reduce this effect.[87][88]
As of January 2026[update], there were 194 E2-Jet aircraft in commercial service with 18 known operators; the three largest operators arePorter Airlines (51),Azul Brazilian Airlines (43), andKLM Cityhopper (25).[89]

The Embraer E-Jet E2 program was officially launched during the 50th International Paris Air Show held in June 2013, withSkyWest Airlines, a North American regional airline, andInternational Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC), a leasing company placing the first firm orders for the aircraft.[111]
SkyWest was intended as the launch customer of the Embraer E175-E2, with the airline placing a firm order for 100 aircraft, with purchase rights for another 100, an order valued at US$9.36 billion at list price,[112] although airlines routinely receive deep discounts from the list price of planes. The order was canceled in Q3 of 2018 due to the airplane being too heavy to operate under scope clauses.[113][114]
ILFC is the launch customer for the Embraer E190-E2 and E195-E2, with the leasing company placing a firm order for 25 E190-E2 aircraft and 25 E195-E2 aircraft, with purchase rights for another 25 of each type in 2013.[115] ILFC was purchased byAerCap in May 2014.[116]
Overall, sales for the E-Jet E2 program have been slow. Analysts attribute sluggish orders to the weight of the E175-E2 and the positioning of the E190-E2 “in-between” other models, and Pratt & Whitney's issues with the engine. Embraer has said that it needs to sell 700 aircraft to meet its goals for the program.[117]
