As the most sustainably designed jet in its class, Bombardier’s Challenger 3500 has all the makings of a game changer: cockpit technology allows pilots to fly more efficiently and reduce CO2 emissions; customizable interiors prioritize recycled and upcycled materials; the build process is largely powered by hydroelectric; and, of course, it is fully compatible with Sustainable Aviation Fuels. None of these features detract from the plane’s impressive performance, however. The 10-seater Challenger 3500 can cover an impressive 3,400 nm and boasts a top speed of 0.83 Mach. The in-cabin experience is also top of its game, boasting the industry’s first voice-control technology.
