The HondaJet has taken first place in
the global small-jet market for the first time ever.
Honda Aircraft Co., a U.S unit of
Honda Motor Co., has been enjoying strong demand mainly from North American and
European customers since it started delivering the seven-seater business jet at
the end of 2015. Twenty-four of the $4.9 million jets were shipped in the first
half.
Honda Aircraft President Michimasa
Fujino said the plane has earned high marks for performance, comfort and
usability.
According to Honda, the subsidiary has
received orders for over 100 units combined from North America, Europe, Latin
America and Southeast Asia.
While the firm is projected to ship 50
to 55 units this year, it hopes to bump that up to 80 to 100 units in the
future.
