Designed for 19 passengers, the aircraft reached a cruising speed of 300 km/h during the test flight. The CE-25A prototype, which had previously undergone autonomous flights, was tested with two pilots and an engineer on board. The flight lasted 16 minutes and covered 60.4 kilometers, with all systems functioning normally. This aircraft represents COMAC's first commercial electric model, aimed at regional passenger transport with a range of approximately 400 km.
