Airbus on Tuesday unveiled a possible mega-order for its planned new eco-conscious A320neo jet _ a deal the European aircraft manufacturer is calling the largest in aviation history.<\/p>\n

The commitment by Indian low-cost carrier IndiGo for 180 A320s _ including 150 of the new A320neos _ would have a value at list prices of $15.6 billion (euro12 billion) if converted into a firm order, Airbus said.<\/p>\n

Airbus says it would be the biggest order in terms of number of jets in aviation history.<\/p>\n

IndiGo is the first announced customer for the A320neo _ a revamped version of the European aircraft maker’s workhorse jet that Airbus hopes to bring to market in 2016.<\/strong> New features include more fuel efficient engines and other technological features with the goal of fuel savings of 15 percent over its predecessor.<\/p>\n

The new aircraft is also being designed with lower carbon emissions and engine noise in mind, Airbus says.<\/p>\n

The A320 is Airbus’ best-selling plane. Over 6,800 have been ordered and over 4,500 delivered to more than 310 customers worldwide since the single-aisle plane went into service in 1988. It was designed to compete with Boeing’s 737 family, which has been running since 1968.<\/p>\n
