PW800
PW800
The PW800 from the exciting new family of Pratt & Whitney PurePower® engines is a new centerline engine with game-changing technologies to deliver double-digit improvements in fuel consumption, environmental emissions, engine noise and operating costs. PurePower engines will power long-range business jets, regional airliners and single-aisle aircraft.
The PW800 engine family raises the bar on performance and economics by taking advantage of the latest material, aerodynamic and design technologies. The engine incorporates advanced fan, compressor, turbine and low-emissions TALON™ combustion systems for exceptional fuel consumption, future thrust-growth capability and improved environmental performance.
The PW800 engine shares the same proven core technology as the efficient Pratt & Whitney GTF™ engine family. MTU Aero Engines contributes its flagship products, the high-pressure compressor and the low-pressure turbine, to this commercial engine.
