| Aircraft | Range | Pax | Top speed | Cabin H × W | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Embraer Phenom 300 | 3,650 km | 7 | 464 kt | 1.5 × 1.55 m | The most-delivered business jet in the world for a decade. Best cabin in class, single-pilot approved, superb short-runway performance. |
| Cessna Citation CJ3+ | 3,778 km | 6 | 416 kt | 1.45 × 1.47 m | The value pick. Very efficient, easy to charter cheaply, cabin is a touch narrower than the Phenom. |
| Learjet 75 Liberty | 3,852 km | 6 | 465 kt | 1.5 × 1.56 m | Fastest light jet in the sky, 51,000 ft ceiling, only flat-floor cabin in class. Bombardier ended production in 2022 so the fleet is used-only but young. |
| Cessna Citation CJ4 Gen2 | 4,010 km | 10 | 451 kt | 1.45 × 1.47 m | The largest and fastest CJ. Single-pilot certified, transatlantic-capable with a Reykjavik stop, and a 2021 cabin refresh. |
| Embraer Phenom 100EV | 2,182 km | 6 | 406 kt | 1.47 × 1.55 m | The premium entry-level jet. Four-seat cabin, Garmin G3000, and a 15 percent lower hourly rate than the Citation M2. |
| HondaJet Elite II This model | 2,865 km | 6 | 422 kt | 1.47 × 1.52 m | Over-wing engine mounts, a signature quiet cabin, and the 2022 refresh with autothrottle. A category of one. |
