The first Piaggio Avanti Evo, a twin pusher turboprop, has been delivered to an unnamed Greek customer for charter, with five more scheduled for delivery by year-end.
The Avanti Evo is an upgraded version of the Avanti II, featuring a quieter, better-appointed interior, enhanced avionics, and improved performance through new winglets, redesigned engine nacelles, and five-bladed composite propellers.
Priced at $7.4 million, the Evo can carry up to seven passengers, boasts a maximum cruise speed over 400 knots, and offers an IFR range of 1,770 nm with an increased-range option.
The first Piaggio Avanti Evo is flying with its new owner four months after the twin pusher turboprop received its type certification.
Piaggio Aerospace delivered the airplane to an unnamed Greek customer that plans to use it for charter. Five more Avanti Evos are due for deliveries before then end of the year to customers in the United States, Asia and Europe.
