Cleaner, Quieter, More Reliable

Improvements to the 737 MAX family have led to a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions and fuel use.

The 737 MAX is significantly quieter than the previous generation of aircraft. The 737-8 has a 50% smaller noise footprint than the 737-800 in part because of the higher-bypass ratio on the LEAP-1B engine as well as the unique chevron design on the nacelle—another advance inspired by the 787 Dreamliner.

The 737 MAX has a simple, robust, and reliable design which means it spends more time flying and less time in the hangar. The 737 MAX is lightweight, easy to maintain, and provides industry-leading reliability and utilization.
