Honda, a big name in the automotive industry is tapping into the aviation industry as the company looks to tap into skyrocketing demand for private travel.

Under the proposal, the plane will have the capacity to seat up to 11 people and offer up to 20% better fuel efficiency than other jets in the category.

Honda Aircraft unveiled the new design at the National Business Aviation Association show in Las Vegas – renowned to be the industry’s largest business jet show.

Honda Aircraft, a subsidiary of Japan’s Honda Motor Co currently produces a six-seater HondaJet.

Honda’s plans come as business aviation traffic is soaring above pre-pandemic levels, with some corporate jet operators having to refuse new clients.
