SAVANNAH, GA—Luxury aviation just got a major new contender. Gulfstream Aerospace has officially unveiled its latest business jet, the G300, a super-midsize aircraft designed to replace the highly successful G280 model with a host of next-generation features and a powerful new flight deck.
The announcement was made at the company’s exclusive “Discover the Difference” customer event in Savannah, Georgia, where Gulfstream President Mark Burns revealed a full-scale mock-up of the new jet and presented photos of the first aircraft already in production.
The Details: Range, Comfort, and Technology
The G300 is a showcase of a decade’s worth of investment in advanced aviation technology. It combines transatlantic range with the agility needed for shorter-field takeoffs, making it a versatile option for corporate and private travel.
Key specifications and features include:
- Price: The new G300 carries a list price of $28.9 million.
- Range: It can fly up to 3,600 nautical miles (6,667 kilometers) at a speed of Mach 0.80, or 3,000 nautical miles at Mach 0.84, allowing for seamless nonstop journeys across continents.
- Capacity: The jet’s cabin, which Gulfstream says is the longest in its class, is configured with two distinct living areas and can accommodate up to 10 passengers.
- Cabin Experience: Passengers will enjoy Gulfstream’s signature panoramic oval windows, an ultra-low cabin altitude (4,800 feet at a cruising altitude of 41,000 feet), and a 100% fresh air system with a plasma ionization air purification system.
A New Era of Digital Cockpits
For pilots, the G300 introduces the all-new Harmony Flight Deck, a major technological leap from its predecessor.
- The Harmony Flight Deck features six touchscreen displays with intuitive “Phase-of-Flight intelligence” to streamline pilot tasks.
- It includes a Synthetic Vision-Primary Flight Display that uses 3D imagery to enhance situational awareness.
- The system also boasts a Predictive Landing Performance System, which calculates the runway stopping point in real-time, greatly improving safety.
According to Gulfstream President Mark Burns, this new aircraft will “reenergize the category with its heightened technology and safety enhancements, alongside the legendary comfort and styling of a Gulfstream.”
The G300 is currently in the ground-testing phase, with customer deliveries scheduled to begin in early 2027.
Conclusion
The unveiling of the Gulfstream G300 is a clear statement of intent from the luxury jet manufacturer: to dominate the super-midsize segment with a highly advanced, comfortable, and technologically superior aircraft. By building on the strengths of the G280 while adding cutting-edge avionics and a more spacious cabin, the G300 is poised to become a top choice for discerning buyers in the highly competitive private aviation market.
