The LEAP-1B engine is widely recognised for its fuel efficiency, reliability and lower emissions, making it the exclusive powerplant for the Boeing 737 MAX family.

CFM International has delivered more than 10,000 LEAP engines worldwide. It continues to enhance the engine family through durability improvements and maintenance upgrades aimed at increasing on-wing performance while reducing operating costs.
