An analytical article points out that, in the electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) sector, Joby Aviation (JOBY) offers greater investment potential than Archer Aviation (ACHR). The analysis suggests that although both companies’ stock prices have fallen by more than 50% over the past 12 months, Joby boasts a longer range and higher speed from a technical standpoint and is developing a hydrogen-powered version. On the regulatory front, Joby is making faster progress in the FAA’s commercial flight approval process and has already generated revenue through its subsidiary, Blade. Furthermore, Joby’s business model leans more toward a vertically integrated “mobility-as-a-service” approach, whereas Archer primarily operates as an original equipment manufacturer. Although Joby’s price-to-sales ratio based on 2028 projections (15x) is higher than Archer’s (7x), analysts believe that Joby’s technological advantages, faster regulatory progress, and more tightly integrated business model—along with its higher revenue and liquidity—make it the safer investment choice at present.
