Bombardier Global 8000: World’s fastest, longest-range business jet to hit the market in 2025

Bombardier announced this week that manufacturing of key structural components for the first production jet is underway at Bombardier’s facilities in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, Red Oak, Texas and Querétaro, Mexico. Expected to enter service in the second half of 2025, the Global 8000 private jet will stand out as the world’s fastest, longest-range business jet, innovatively engineered with the smoothest ride and healthiest cabin in the industry.

The aircraft also continues to impress in flight tests, achieving positive results throughout its campaign.

“The manufacturing process for what will be the industry’s fastest business jet, the impressive ultra-long-range Global 8000, has begun,” said David Murray, Bombardier’s executive vice president of manufacturing, IT and operational systems. “Our engineering and manufacturing teams continue to demonstrate unparalleled levels of expertise, pride and innovation, qualities that are an intrinsic part of Bombardier’s DNA. The mastery of our people underpins the progress we are making at our manufacturing sites and underscores Bombardier’s culture of excellence and our commitment to elevating the world of aviation.”

“Our customers will soon be able to board an aircraft that sets the standard as the fastest and longest-range business aircraft in history, enabling them to reach farther destinations faster than ever before,” added Jean-Christophe Gallagher, Bombardier’s Executive Vice President, Aircraft Sales and Defense. “Connectivity, comfort and a fresh arrival are just as important today as speed and range, which is why we are proud that the Global 8000 will boast best-in-class cabin altitude and deliver Bombardier’s signature smooth ride.”

The aircraft will feature an industry-leading range of 8,000 nautical miles and an unmatched top speed of Mach 0.94, unlocking more city pairs than ever before, including Dubai-Houston, Singapore-Los Angeles, London-Perth and many more. With four true living spaces and a separate crew rest area, the Global 8000 aircraft will be capable of flying up to 8,000 nautical miles non-stop. The discerning business jet will also feature the most generous cabin size in its class, along with the most advanced cabins in the industry.

This incredible business aircraft will also deliver on the in-flight experience. The luxurious cabin will incorporate revolutionary features introduced on the Global 7500 aircraft that dramatically improve passenger comfort, including an available Master Suite with a double bed and a stand-up shower in the bathroom. Revolutionary cabin advancements will also include entertainment and connectivity controls, Bombardier’s intuitive Touch CMS and OLED touch display, and l’Opéra directional sound system to ensure passengers have an unparalleled cabin experience.

In anticipation of the Global 8000 business jet’s planned entry into service, an upgrade is currently available for purchase by existing Global 7500 aircraft customers through one of Bombardier’s aircraft service centers. Benefits of the upgrade will include improving the aircraft’s top speed, increasing its range, and providing passengers with exceptionally low cabin altitudes.
