Bombardier Global 6500 vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Bombardier Global 8000

All three are long-range large-cabin business jets in Bombardier’s Global family, but they step up in capability from the Global 6500 to the Global 7500 and then to the Global 8000. The Global 6500 sits in the long-range category and is typically rated around 6,600 nautical miles of range, with seating commonly configured for roughly 12 to 17 passengers depending on layout. The Global 7500 is an ultra-long-range flagship with about 7,700 nautical miles of range and generally similar typical seating—often about 14 to 19 passengers—while offering a larger cabin and more zone options. The Global 8000 is positioned as the longest-range, fastest member of the line, targeting about 8,000 nautical miles of range, with typical seating again in the mid-to-high teens (commonly around 15 to 19), emphasizing maximum intercontinental reach and performance rather than a big jump in passenger count. Actual certified range and seating vary by year, options, and operator configuration.
