CFM56-7: 61-inch fan

A key driver of 737 MAX fuel savings is the new CFM LEAP-1B engine. The engine is designed for the rigors of single-aisle operations and tailor-made for the 737 MAX.

Easy to Operate

Airlines ask for an airplane that fits smoothly in today's fleet

Because of the 737’s popularity with airlines everywhere around the world, integrating the new 737 MAX is an easy proposition. As you build your 737 MAX fleet, millions of dollars will be saved because of its commonality with the Next-Generation 737, ease of maintenance, wide availability of 737 pilots, and the global infrastructure that supports the aircraft in operation.

Advanced Technology Winglet Saves More Fuel

737 MAX winglets

Advanced technology winglets are the most efficient ever designed for a production airplane, because of the combination of advanced design and manufacturing techniques allowing for natural laminar flow. The winglets reduce fuel burn by approximately 2 percent.
