Maximum takeoff weight is up 100 pounds, but some weight-shaving measures carved about 100 pounds from the empty weight, for a 200-pound payload increase.


The additional fuel amounts to 16 gallons, achieved by redesigning the aft fuselage fuel tank to fill some unused space in the aft fuselage.


Interior and exterior noise have been lowered significantly with a unique design feature, a perforated honeycomb-sandwich engine inlet engineered to cut fan blade passage noise.


Improvements to the G3000 flight deck include faster display processors, performance planning for all phases of flight and takeoff/landing distance computation for runway length, V-speeds, climb/approach gradient, and more.


Now the Japanese company is upping the ante, today announcing the HondaJet Elite.


Which is claimed to not only fly further than its competitors, but also fly quieter, with new noise-attenuating technology to keep noise down in the cabin.


The HondaJet is an already impressive piece of aerospace engineering, with a pair of speed records under its belt and what Honda describes as best-in-class efficiency.
