Gulfstream G500 vs Gulfstream G600 vs Gulfstream G650er vs Gulfstream G700 vs Gulfstream G800 1

All five are large-cabin, long-range business jets, but they span different missions. The Gulfstream G500 is the “shortest-range” of the group, suited to transcontinental and many North Atlantic city pairs, with a typical capacity around 12–16 passengers. The G600 steps up in the same family with longer reach—comfortably covering more intercontinental routes—while keeping a similar typical passenger load in the low-to-mid teens. The G650ER is a flagship ultra-long-range jet, optimized for very long nonstop missions, and usually seats about 14–18 in typical configurations. The G700 emphasizes maximum cabin size and comfort in Gulfstream’s lineup, pairing very long range with one of the roomiest cabins; typical passenger counts are again in the mid-to-high teens depending on layout. The G800 combines the newer large-cabin platform with the longest published range in the current Gulfstream lineup, aimed at the most demanding nonstop city pairs, while maintaining a similar typical capacity to the G650ER/G700 (generally mid-to-high teens). In short: G500 < G600 < G650ER/G700 in range, with G800 at the top; G700 leads in cabin volume, while passenger capacity is broadly similar across most typical executive layouts.
