About Embraer E175-E2

Re-engined E175 with PW1700G geared turbofans. Faces a market challenge: US scope clauses that favor the E175-E1 make the heavier E2 variant difficult to sell in its primary market.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Embraer E175-E2 is designed to seat approximately 80 passengers in a two-class configuration, with up to 90 seats in a single-class layout. It maintains the popular 2-2 seating arrangement from the first-generation E175. The E175-E2 features the same modern cabin interior design as its E2 siblings with larger overhead bins.
The Embraer E175-E2 is expected to have a maximum range of approximately 3,735 km (2,017 nautical miles). It uses a Pratt & Whitney PW1715G geared turbofan engine, the smallest variant in the PW1000G family. The fuel efficiency improvement over the first-generation E175 is estimated at approximately 16%.
The E175-E2 offers 16% better fuel efficiency and a redesigned wing with increased span, while maintaining the same cabin cross-section and 2-2 seating. The new geared turbofan engines are significantly quieter. However, the E175-E2 has a higher maximum takeoff weight, which creates a critical problem: US airline scope clauses typically limit regional jets to 86,000 pounds (39,009 kg), and the E175-E2 exceeds this threshold.
The E175-E2 shares the E2 family's redesigned wing with raked wingtips and the angular cockpit window design. Its Pratt & Whitney geared turbofan engines have distinctive large-diameter nacelles. The aircraft is shorter than the E190-E2 and E195-E2, making it the most compact member of the E2 family. The overall appearance is noticeably more modern than the first-generation E175.
The E175-E2 has received no firm orders, making it the least successful E2 variant. The primary obstacle is the US airline scope clause, which restricts regional aircraft to a maximum takeoff weight of approximately 86,000 pounds. The E175-E2 exceeds this limit, making it ineligible for the massive US regional market that the first-generation E175 dominates. Until scope clauses are renegotiated, the E175-E2's market potential remains limited to non-US operators.
