Boeing 737 MAX 7

The Boeing 737 MAX 7 is the shortest member of the 737 MAX family, seating fewer passengers than the more popular MAX 8 but offering slightly longer range. It shares the same new, larger engines and aerodynamic updates as its MAX siblings, giving it a significant fuel-burn improvement over the 737 it replaces in that size class. Airlines have ordered it in far smaller numbers than the mid-size MAX 8, since most prefer the extra capacity of the larger variants. It's aimed mainly at replacing older, smaller 737-700s on lower-demand routes.
