Boeing has launched a new larger capacity variant of its 737 MAX single aisle passenger jet at the 2017 Paris Air Show to compete with the Airbus A321neo.
The new 737 MAX 10 will have the same seating capacity of A321neo, up to 230 passengers, but will deliver five percent lower trip costs and five percent lower seat-mile costs.
Design changes for the 737 MAX 10 include a fuselage stretch of 66 inches compared to the 737 MAX 9 and levered main landing gear.
Other changes include a variable exit limit rating mid-exit door, a lighter flat aft pressure bulkhead and a modified wing for low speed drag reduction.
The airplane has gained wide market acceptance with more than 240 orders and commitments secured from more than 10 customers worldwide.
Like Boeing's other 737 MAX models, the 737 MAX 10 incorporates the latest technology CFM International LEAP-1B engines, Advanced Technology winglets, Boeing Sky Interior, large flight deck displays, and other improvements to deliver the highest efficiency, reliability and passenger comfort in the single-aisle market.
