The model and its relatives

Challenger 300

Launched as the Bombardier Continental in 1999, the aircraft entered service as the Challenger 300 in 2004. It was a new design positioned between smaller Learjets and the larger Challenger 604.

Model historyWhere it began and how it evolved

Bombardier did not create the 300 by shortening the large Challenger 600 family. The Continental project was a new aircraft for the growing super midsize segment, with a stand-up cabin and room for two seating groups. It became the foundation of the later 350 and 3500 line.

Launched as the Bombardier Continental in 1999, the aircraft entered service as the Challenger 300 in 2004. It was a new design positioned between smaller Learjets and the larger Challenger 604.

The 350 replaced it in 2014, bringing revised wings, more powerful engines and a refreshed cabin. The 300 remains a separate model, with different performance and equipment.
