Numerous color variations not found in previous business jets
Cockpit equipped with cutting-edge avionics technology
Features highly visible high-resolution displays and touchscreens
The partition to the cockpit is designed to allow light to pass through.
The cabin space was designed with larger aircraft in mind.
The entire cabin is designed to be very bright.
By not mounting the engines on the body, structural materials are eliminated, creating a spacious cabin.
Even with large tables extended on both sides, a passageway is maintained.
Since the engines are located away from the cabin, the noise level is also reduced.
The seats can be smoothly moved inward from the walls.
The interior quality was particularly carefully designed.
Attention was also paid to the feel of extending and retracting the tables.
The tables are large enough to comfortably fit two lunch boxes.
The very back is a lavatory.
The lavatory partition is not a curtain but a solid door that extends to the floor, creating a completely private space.
The blue glass washbasin is a proud feature, chosen to complement the bright light from the skylight.
The toilet is also a full-size unit, not a compact one.
The luggage compartment is also large due to the absence of engine structural materials.
Six large golf bags can be stored.

Mr. Fujino received the Aircraft Design Award, the Kelly Johnson Award, and others for the innovative design of the HondaJet.
