Lots of people identify Honda with their automobiles, Honda is more than just automobile, they have a business jet.

After the jet was certified in December 2015, Honda engineers started to work on the improved HondaJet Elite, with an expanded performance envelope, improved interior and updated flight deck. Range is 1,437 nmi (2,661 km) with an auxiliary fuel tank and aerodynamic improvements. The horizontal stabilizer tips are extended slightly and hinge gaps tightened up, allowing energized flow over the stabilizer without its vortex generators. The type certificate was amended by the FAA on 2 May 2018, and soon followed by EASA.

In May 2018, 30 months after the introduction, the $5.2 million (as of 2018) HondaJet Elite was revealed before delivery began in August. Its elevator authority is increased to reduce its takeoff roll by 400 ft (120 m), reducing the Cessna Citation M2's range and take-off advantages. A new engine inlet reduces vibration and cabin noise, the lavatory receives a belted seat allowing a fifth passenger even with a galley and the Garmin G3000-based flight deck gets computed take-off distance and stability/angle of attack protection.

Its payload is increased by over 200 lb (91 kg): 107 pounds (49 kg) from the empty weight reduction and 100 pounds (45 kg) from an increased maximum takeoff weight while 16 US gal (61 l) more of fuel tank fill unused space in the aft fuselage. Honda began deliveries on August 7, 2018. The upgrades are retrofitable for $250,000, including software updates and a 45 kg (100 lb) MTOW increase and take-off run reduction by 135 m (443 ft) to 1,064m thanks to a few inches span extension of the horizontal tailplane, removal of wing fences and vortex generators. At a weight of 9,500 lb (4,300 kg) and ISA+3°C, the HondaJet Elite cruises at Mach 0.676 or 390 kn (720 km/h) TAS, while burning 570 lb (260 kg) per hour, better than book predictions.
