Overview
- Embraer unveiled the Phenom 300EV on Tuesday, July 14, 2026, as an evolution of its single‑pilot light jet that includes Garmin Emergency Autoland to perform a fully automated landing if a pilot is incapacitated.
- The aircraft introduces an Embraer‑developed multi‑purpose electronic controller that manages rudder‑by‑wire and other electronically controlled functions and adds autobrake for takeoffs and landings to reduce pilot workload.
- A modernized Garmin G3000 Prodigy Touch flight deck brings 3D taxi routing, runway‑occupancy alerts, synthetic vision, inertial reference and FANS 1/A+ with RNP AR 0.3 navigation capability.
- Embraer lists a maximum range of about 2,055 nautical miles, an increase in zero‑fuel weight that adds roughly 430 pounds of payload, True Blue Power lithium‑ion batteries, and factory‑installed Gogo Galileo LEO connectivity with Starlink planned as an aftermarket STC.
- The Phenom 300EV keeps a Mach 0.80 top speed and cabin features such as a vacuum lavatory, improved temperature control and air ionization, and it builds on the Phenom 300 line’s long record as the market’s best‑selling light jet while signaling wider use of safety automation in business aviation.
