Top 5 Most Fuel-Efficient Turboprop Aircraft 2022-2023 | Price & Specs

In this episode, we’ll take a look at the latest offerings from some of the best aircraft companies and discuss how much fuel each aircraft burns per hour. We have an exciting list of turboprops for you today, so please take your seat, fasten your seatbelts, and enjoy this one.

When buying a new plane or even just chartering one, the fuel efficiency rate along with the passenger capacity and range, is universally considered an important factor. When you buy a car, it's easier to find out how much gas it uses, because the technical specifications list it. When it comes to planes, however, things are a little bit trickier. Fuel costs can make up half, if not more of the aircraft's annual operating costs. For commercial jets and other large aircraft, these costs can range from hundreds of thousands to even millions of dollars. For the purpose of this list, we’ll look at the average fuel burn per hour, as well as some of their interesting features!

The "burn per hour" is not necessarily a good guide to efficiency, especially when speeds range from 183 to 402 KTS. Nautical miles per gallon should also be considered. This would still leave the Daher and Piper at 1 and 2, but the Pilatus would go up to 3, the Avanti to 4 and the Kodiak would drop to 5. If you factor in passengers and use gal/passenger mile, the Daher still wins, the Pilatus 2nd, the Kodiak 3rd, Avanti 4th and Piper 5th.

Would love to see a breakdown for the top 5 turbo props then the top 5 jet aircraft and compare the weight moved over 1000miles and the cost of fuel to achieve.

[patshes]

Kodiak 100 for me . Very practical aircraft. Thanks for the info Sophy.

[chinyereapakama]

Insightful and straight to the point. Enjoyed the video. 😊😊😊😊

[cageordie]

What about the Epic E1000? If I did my sums right you can load 2, 300 pounds of people and cargo on an E1000, then brim the tanks with 1, 100 pounds of fuel. At that load you have an 8, 000 pound takeoff weight and can climb to FL340 in 15 minutes, then cut back to 265KIAS and cruise on for ove5 1600nm range. Autothrottle would be nice.

[kevinbarry]

Airplanes have at least two fuel burn race at cruise. There's fast cruise and economy cruise. You don't mention which. Nor do you say the speeds quoted our fast cruise. I don't think you're going to get both the speed you mentioned, and the fuel economy you mentioned simultaneously.

[robertwallace]

Very interesting line up, I personally like the TBM for the style and range. However the Kodak is a workhorse and is the bush pilot choice… I think the only thing missing from the safe land system is the parachute system of the Cirrus. If the TBM had that it would be mint.

[patricksyquio]

Ur video has oriented me on turbo aircraft which has best fuel efficiency n price best value

[ubermenschen]

The PC 12NGX should have the ‘go home’ or the emergency auto-land feature as part of the Honeywell avionic.

[philipcoombs]

DeHaviland Beaver and Twin Otter(DHC 6)? Reports would be much appreciated.

[larryswinford]

The Piper was pretty impressive to me. Thank you.

[RickarooCarew]

so... I think... if fuel efficiency is a prominent feature in the budget... new turboprop aircraft are probably stretching that budget a bit... comfortable monthly payment doesn't sound very comfortable for long... but.. hey... I love this stuff

[jeromeavila]

Pilatus is the best choice that can accomodate 10 passengers, which also fuel

[mafpw]

I would have liked to see the fuel used per mile traveled as well. A plane that flies twice as far in an hour that has twice the fuel burn, is the same efficiency.

[guyrandom]

tbm looks much more cramped in the cabin is it that much smaller than the others or just an illusion of much tighter cabin

[trim]

Semoga bisa memiliki Daher TBM 960 amiin

[jhomrich]

Never knew turboprop and fuel economy belonged in the same sentence lol. But seriously the Kodiak is my choice; Toyota land cruiser of the skys

[inuwasirajo]

So Pilatus it's in terms of fuel economy passenger number range reliability and technology

[aaronstandingbear]

What would defeat the high cost of fuel would be to go electric as Tesla did. His Packard had power from the ambient charge around it. Aircraft converted to electric motors feeding off the ambient electrical charge of the earth. No batteries, no wires. No cost.
