In addition to offering high-level performance and operating costs among the most competitive in the industry, the Challenger 3500 stands out for its innovative design and technologically advanced cab.

Bombardier's commitment to sustainability is evidenced by the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), which certifies the environmental impact of the entire production fleet. In addition, the company uses Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) for all flight operations through the Book-and-Claim system, confirming itself as a pioneer in eco-responsible aviation.
