ORLANDO—Honda Aircraft Co. has introduced the HondaJet Elite II very light jet, an upgraded HondaJet with a longer range, redesigned cabin and automated technologies, such as an autothrottle and optional Garmin’s Emergency Autoland. 

“The HondaJet Elite II once again pushes the boundaries of its category on all fronts of performance, comfort and style,” says Hideto Yamasaki, Honda Aircraft Co. president and CEO. “We are also excited to take our aircraft forward on the journey of automation by bringing new technologies to the market next year.”

The aircraft, with a price tag of $6.95 million, will have additional space to carry more fuel, an increased maximum takeoff weight of 11,100 lb., and a range with four passengers of 1,547 nm, a 110 nm increase from 1,437 nm. It also will include ground spoilers to optimize takeoff-and-landing field performance with the increased weight.
