EHang Holdings Limited, an Urban Air Mobility (UAM) technology firm, has launched its Exhibition (Experience) Center in Shenzhen’s Luohu Sports and Leisure Park.
This facility serves as the world’s first EH216-S takeoff and landing site, equipped with a fully automated vertical lift vertiport. It also marks a new era of smart infrastructure in Shenzhen, dedicated to the commercial operations of the EH216-S pilotless passenger-carrying aerial vehicle, establishing a pioneering model for eVTOL aircraft operations in urban areas.
Designed by EHang, the Luohu UAM Center features an automated three-dimensional vertical lift vertiport. This facility streamlines operations by reducing labor costs and optimizing space utilization. Spanning approximately 753 square meters, the Luohu UAM Center offers a seamless and comfortable experience for passengers with its dedicated hangar and boarding area on the first floor. The integrated takeoff and landing pad with the hangar enables rapid charging, further streamlining flight operations.
During the launch ceremony on January 21, an EH216-S aircraft was successfully lifted from the first to the second floor by the vertical lift platform. It then soared into the skies, completing a lap over the Luohu Sports and Leisure Park before landing smoothly, marking its inaugural flight at the Luohu UAM Center.

As Luohu District’s first smart UAM operation center, it is expected to provide a solid foundation for the commercial operations of the district’s low-altitude economy, serving as a model for low-altitude economy development and a new landmark for cultural and tourism initiatives.
The Luohu UAM Center offers abundant natural mountain and lake scenery, making it an ideal location for developing low-altitude sightseeing tourism. Through the Luohu UAM center, EHang will further deepen its strategic cooperation with the Luohu District Bureau of Culture, Broadcasting, Tourism, and Sports.
Zhao Wang, EHang’s Chief Operating Officer, said, “In collaboration with our partners, EHang has established operational infrastructure for EH216-S aircraft in cities such as Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hefei, Wuxi, Taiyuan, and Wenzhou Wencheng.
“The Luohu UAM Center, featuring an automated vertical lift platform design, represents an innovative approach to infrastructure development for the low-altitude economy. It will serve as a cornerstone of EHang’s operations in Shenzhen’s low-altitude economy. Leveraging our first-mover advantage in the eVTOL sector, we will continue working with our partners in Shenzhen to develop and refine the integrated growth of the low-altitude economy and ground economy.
“Our efforts aim to promote high-quality advancement of the low-altitude economy in Shenzhen and the Greater Bay Area, providing a valuable reference for safe and efficient eVTOL operations nationwide and globally.”
