Airbus Acj320 Neo vs Airbus Acj350 vs Bombardier Global 5500 vs Dassault Falcon 10x vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Gulfstream G500
By category, the Airbus ACJ320neo and ACJ350 are “bizliners” based on airliners, prioritizing cabin volume and customization; the others are purpose-built business jets. The ACJ320neo sits in the large-cabin, long-range class, typically offering roughly 3,500–4,000 nm range with common corporate fit-outs carrying around 8–19 passengers. The ACJ350 is an ultra-long-range, widebody bizliner with about 10,000+ nm capability and generally 12–25 passengers in very spacious layouts. Among traditional business jets, the Bombardier Global 5500 is a large-cabin, ultra-long-range jet around 5,900 nm, commonly seating about 8–16. Dassault’s Falcon 6X is a large-cabin, long-range jet around 5,500 nm, typically 8–16 passengers, while the Falcon 10X is an ultra-long-range flagship around 7,500 nm, often 8–19 passengers. The Gulfstream G500 is a large-cabin, long-range jet around 5,300 nm, typically 8–16 passengers. Overall, ACJ350 leads on range and cabin scale; Falcon 10X leads among purpose-built jets; Global 5500, Falcon 6X, and G500 cluster in similar capacity with differing cabin geometries and mission emphasis.
