For decades, the Gulfstream name has been synonymous with ultra-long-range aviation. With the introduction of the all-new Gulfstream G400, which completed its first flight in August 2024 and is on track for entry into service in 2025, the company is bringing its hallmark features of performance, speed, and comfort to a different class of business jet. Positioned as the “entry-level” large-cabin jet, the G400 offers a new and compelling option for travelers who seek the Gulfstream experience without needing the extreme range of its larger siblings.

PERFORMANCE THAT ELEVATES THE STANDARD
The G400 is not a modest machine. Its performance metrics set a new benchmark for the large-cabin category.
- Fuel-efficient power: It is powered by two advanced Pratt & Whitney Canada PW812GA turbofan engines, which offer impressive fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.
- Rapid-fire range: The G400 can fly 4,200 nautical miles at Mach 0.85, enabling nonstop routes such as Geneva to New York or London to Delhi. Its maximum operating speed of Mach 0.90 is one of the fastest in its class, ensuring swift journeys.
- Advanced aerodynamics: The aircraft features the same advanced high-speed wing and winglets as the larger G500 and G600, further enhancing its efficiency.

A CABIN CRAFTED FOR WELLNESS
In the G400, the focus is squarely on the passenger. Gulfstream’s signature Cabin Experience is infused throughout, prioritizing health, comfort, and productivity.
- Class-leading cabin size: The G400 boasts the largest and most flexible cabin in its class, with up to 2.5 living areas. It can be configured for up to 12 passengers, with a variety of floorplans to suit different needs.
- The lowest cabin altitude: The cabin maintains a remarkably low cabin altitude of 3,255 feet while flying at 41,000 feet. This significantly reduces the effects of jet lag and fatigue, ensuring passengers arrive feeling more refreshed.
- 100% fresh air: A plasma ionization system purifies the air, which is 100% fresh and never recirculated, enhancing the quality of the cabin environment.
- Panoramic views and natural light: With 10 large Gulfstream Panoramic Oval Windows, the cabin is filled with natural light, creating an open and airy atmosphere.

TECHNOLOGY THAT EMPOWERS THE PILOT
The G400 features the revolutionary Symmetry Flight Deck, a hallmark of Gulfstream’s next-generation aircraft.
- Enhanced control: The active control sidesticks provide tactile feedback and move in tandem, improving crew coordination.
- Predictive safety: The Predictive Landing Performance System provides pilots with continuously updated data to help prevent runway overruns.
- Reduced workload: Extensive use of touchscreen controls reduces pilot workload and streamlines operations.

A NEW CHAPTER BEGINS
With the G400, Gulfstream is not just launching a new aircraft; it is making a bold statement about the future of the large-cabin business jet segment. It delivers the speed and range needed for intercontinental travel while setting a new standard for cabin comfort and environmental efficiency. For buyers seeking a highly advanced, luxurious, and eco-friendly jet without the scale of the company’s ultra-long-range models, the G400 is an unparalleled option.
