The A330-200F flies 20 per cent further and has a cost per tonne 13 per cent lower than its direct competitor. It is the only mid-size, long-haul all-cargo aircraft capable of carrying 64 tonnes/141,095 lbs of payload over 4000 nm/7400 km, or 69 tonnes/152,120 lbs up to 3200 nm/5930 km in the payload mode configuration.

The Airbus Global Market Forecast (GMF) forecasts a demand for over 400 freighters in the 60+ tonne category during the next 20 years. The A330-200F will satisfy a large percentage of this demand by offering better main- and lower-deck flexibility than the competition, with more range and more lift.
