The Embraer ERJ-175LR (ERJ-170-200 LR family) occupies a niche as a medium-capacity regional jet balancing greater seat count and range versus smaller regional types. With a range of 2,200 nm and cruise near 480 kts, it competes with larger regional and smaller single-aisle types on thin transcontinental and denser regional missions. Market demand tends to favor such high-density LR variants for airlines needing economy-focused capacity; buyers and lessors evaluate CF34-8E5 engine maintenance history, avionics configuration (here, Honeywell Primus Epic), and cabin density when assessing resale and lifecycle maintenance considerations.
