In a nutshell
The Boeing 737 MAX 8 carries 13 more passengers than the Airbus A320neo: 8% more.
To scale
Parked side by side at the same scale: each drawing is as wide as the aircraft is long (the chosen variant or, when the model is chosen, its representative variant).
Figure by figure
Each bar is measured against the largest in the comparison; the crown marks the leader.
How far it goes
Each shaded area is what it could reach non-stop from the chosen city. Filled dots are cities within reach of at least one.
Nominal range with a typical passenger load, measured in a straight line over the sphere (great-circle route). In practice every flight follows airways, carries fuel reserves and depends on wind, payload and runway.
Lifeline
From each model's first flight to the end of its production.
More comparisons
Figures for each variant (and, when the model is chosen, for its most representative variant), taken from manufacturers' published specifications and standard aviation references: every configuration changes them somewhat. A specific aircraft takes its variant's figures when its designation identifies it unambiguously, plus the data in its own record.
