Airbus A320neo family developer Airbus
The Airbus A320neo family is a development of the A320 family of narrow-body airliners produced by Airbus.
The A320neo family (neo being Greek for "new", as well as an initialism for "new engine option") is based on the previous A319, A320, and A321 (enhanced variant), which was then renamed A320ceo, for "current engine option".
Re-engined with CFM LEAP or Pratt & Whitney GTF engines and fitted with sharklets as standard, it is 15% to 20% more fuel efficient than prior models, retroactively renamed the A320ceo (current engine option).
It was launched on 1 December 2010, made its first flight on 25 September 2014 and was introduced by Lufthansa on 25 January 2016.
By 2019, the A320neo had a 60% market share against the competing Boeing 737 MAX.
As of April 2023, a total of 8,754 A320neo family aircraft had been ordered by more than 130 customers, of which 2,740 aircraft had been delivered. The global A320neo fleet had completed more than 5.51 million flights over 11 million block hours with one hull loss being an airport-safety related or non-aeronautical accident.
