Bombardier Global 7500 vs Dassault Falcon 10x vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Gulfstream G650er
In category, the Bombardier Global 7500 and Dassault Falcon 10X sit at the very top end of the ultra-long-range, large-cabin business-jet market, while the Gulfstream G650ER is a proven flagship in the same ultra-long-range tier. The Dassault Falcon 8X is also ultra-long-range but generally a step below the 7500/10X in cabin volume, and the Falcon 6X is best described as a large-cabin, long-range jet that prioritizes cabin cross-section over maximum distance compared with the true longest-range leaders. On range, the Global 7500 leads in typical published figures at about 7,700 nautical miles, the Falcon 10X is close behind at about 7,500 nautical miles, and the G650ER is around 7,500 nautical miles. The Falcon 8X is typically quoted around 6,450 nautical miles, and the Falcon 6X around 5,500 nautical miles. For passenger capacity, all can be configured for roughly 8–16 passengers in comfort, with maximum certified layouts generally around 16–19 depending on configuration, with the largest-cabin types (Global 7500, 10X, and G650ER) tending to support higher-density layouts more easily.
