A320neo: New Engine Option
On 1 December 2010, Airbus officially launched its successor to the A320 Enhanced, the A320neo "New Engine Option". The choice for new engines include the CFM International LEAP-1A and the Pratt & Whitney PW1100G. Though the new engines will burn 16% less fuel, the actual fuel efficiency gain on an A320 installation will be slightly lower, since 1–2% is typically lost upon installation on an existing aircraft. Overall this means an additional range of 510 nmi (950 km), or 2 t (4,400 lb) of extra payload.
Airbus' CEO was said to be "comfortable" with the projections of 15% lower maintenance cost for the Pratt & Whitney's PW1000G family, compared with today's engines. Airbus plans to deliver 4,000 A320neo over 15 years. Airlines' choices between the two engines are almost equal.
The first Airbus A320neo rolled out of the Toulouse factory on 1 July 2014. The Pratt & Whitney PW1100G-JM geared turbofan engine was Federal Aviation Administration certified on 19 December 2014.
Contrary to most recent airliner developments with years of delay (including competitors Bombardier CSeries, Comac C919, Irkut MS-21, or postponed development of Boeing Y1/737 MAX), its first flight was advanced to September 2014. 95% commonality with the A320 helped to reduce delays associated with large changes. The A320neo delivery was initially advanced to October 2015 from the second quarter 2016, but afterwards postponed to early 2016. Lufthansa has taken delivery of the first A320neo on 20 January 2016.
The Airbus A321neo prototype, D-AVXB, first flew on 9 February 2016. However, the plane suffered a tailstrike three days later, requiring that the aircraft be flown to Toulouse for repairs. Airbus estimates a delay of several weeks for the certification programme due to the time required for repairs.
Airbus states that the A320neo Family incorporates latest-generation engines and large "Sharklet" wingtip devices, which together will deliver a total of 15 percent in fuel savings; this includes the use of "Sharklet" winglets which are able to decrease the fuel consumption by 3.5% to 4% due to the decrease of wingtip vortices and aerodynamic drag.
The A320neo has over 95% airframe commonality with the current A320 with 91% commonality in tooling; the airframe is made with new materials such as composite materials and more aluminium alloys , which helps save weight and thus fuel consumption. Also, the new materials will reduce the total number of parts of the plane, which will decrease the maintenance costs.
A319neo: Shortened fuselage variant. Qatar Airways was originally scheduled to be the launch operator, but upgauged its order to the larger A320neo in late 2013. No new launch operator has been named since.
A320neo: Standard variant. Lufthansa is the launch operator.
A321neo: Lengthened fuselage with structural strengthening in the landing gear (undercarriage) and wing, increased wing area and other minor modifications due to higher weights. ILFC was the launch customer.
A321LR: Extended range version of the A321neo with additional fuel tank and further increased payload. Air Lease Corp. (ALC) was the launch customer.
