Bombardier Global 6500 vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Dassault Falcon 6x

In category, the Bombardier Global 6500 and Global 7500 are large-cabin, ultra-long-range business jets, with the 7500 sitting at the top end of Bombardier’s lineup in size and capability. The Dassault Falcon 6X is also a large-cabin, long-to-ultra-long-range jet, positioned more as a high-comfort, long-range competitor rather than a maximum-range flagship. For range, the Global 7500 leads with roughly 7,700 nautical miles, enabling the broadest set of nonstop city pairs. The Global 6500 offers about 6,600 nautical miles, still firmly in the long-range class but with fewer extreme nonstop options than the 7500. The Falcon 6X is typically rated around 5,500 nautical miles, making it very capable for transatlantic and many intercontinental missions, though generally shorter-legged than both Globals. For passenger capacity, all three typically seat around 8 to 16 passengers depending on configuration, but the Global 7500 generally supports the most spacious, multi-zone layouts and can accommodate higher typical loads in comfort, with the Global 6500 and Falcon 6X usually configured slightly more modestly.
