The original press release states:

Both the Embraer 170 and 190 have the ability of offering steep approaches to restricted airports, good short-field performance and long-range operations making them one of the most flexible aircraft in the up to 100-seat market”
The E170 fulfils all the criteria listed above, However I believe the E195’s are fitted with more than 100 seats and I am not sure if they have the steep approach capabilities mentioned in the original press release.
