Dassault Falcon 2000lxs vs Dassault Falcon 7x vs Embraer Praetor 600 vs Gulfstream G400

All four are long‑range business jets, but they sit in different size and capability bands. The Dassault Falcon 2000LXS is a large‑cabin twin positioned for comfortable transcontinental missions, typically carrying about 8–10 passengers, with range around 4,000 nautical miles. The Embraer Praetor 600 is a super‑midsize jet aimed at similar missions with a slightly smaller cabin, usually 7–10 passengers, and range about 4,000+ nautical miles, often a bit longer than the 2000LXS depending on conditions and layout. The Dassault Falcon 7X moves up to an ultra‑long‑range, large‑cabin trijet class, commonly seating 10–14, and stretches range to roughly 5,900–6,000 nautical miles. The Gulfstream G400 is also in the large‑cabin long/ultra‑long‑range category, typically configured for about 10–12 passengers, with published range around 4,200 nautical miles, prioritizing Gulfstream cabin comfort and speed over the 7X’s farther reach.
