Certified EVO
Overview
The Avanti EVO develops the P.180’s three-surface configuration while retaining twin pusher turboprops. Its design emphasizes the combination of a business-aircraft cabin and high cruise performance, with changes intended to improve the aircraft’s overall refinement.
Program history
Customer deliveries began in 2015, following the Avanti II. The EVO continues the original P.180 concept and forms the immediate predecessor to the announced Avanti NEXT development.
