At the international aviation exhibition Wings India in India, the business version of the Russian SSJ-100 airliner with PD-8 engines was shown for the first time. The airliner was presented under the luxury brand Aurus.
The aircraft was presented in a static display and was decorated with an exclusive gray-and-white livery.
There are no technical details about the new product yet. It is only known that in the "business" version, the "Superjet" received a higher-comfort cabin intended for business transportation. The exact capacity and fuselage characteristics are still unknown.
It is worth noting that the start of serial deliveries of PD-8 aircraft engines was planned for the fourth quarter of 2025, but as of January 2026 they had still not begun. However, six powerplants have already been delivered for flight tests of experimental SJ-100 aircraft.
