The E175 and E195 are four-abreast regional jets, versus the six-abreast of a Boeing 737 or Airbus A320.
Last month, Embraer denied a report from The Wall Street Journal that it was planning to build a new narrowbody jet to compete directly with the two, amid Boeing’s ongoing crisis.
“Embraer certainly has the capability to develop a new narrowbody aircraft. However, we have a young and very successful portfolio of products developed in recent years, and we are really focused on selling those products and making Embraer bigger and stronger,” a spokesperson said.
