ACH160 Exclusive is the name of the option in the editorial package. It should be considered through the confirmed specification of a specific interior, and not as a separate base model.
The platform remains the H160, and interest is shifting to passenger area trim and equipment. In the premium segment, two cars with the same index may differ in materials, seating and weight options.
Before the publication of performance characteristics Exclusive need documentation for this option. For now, it is more useful to compare understandable things: the convenience of landing, space for conversation and route requirements.

According to the interior design
Airbus Corporate Helicopters, page ACH160. Exclusive means style and layout; the installation of a specific interior changes the mass, places and achievable range.
What makes it exclusive?
The difference is concentrated in the decoration, materials and organization of personal space. It makes sense to compare real drawings and photos of salons, because the name does not fix a single layout.
When choosing, check the seats, luggage space, access to exits and the way the cabin is used during a short flight.
Technical honesty
The speed and range numbers are taken from the ACH160: there is no separate new power plant called Exclusive. The luxurious interior occupies a part of the permissible mass.
Before purchase, you should request a weight statement of the completed board and the calculation of the flight along the usual route. Advertising characteristics of the platform do not replace these documents.
