Beechcraft Bonanza G36 vs Embraer Phenom 100ev vs Piper M350 vs Piper M500

The Beechcraft Bonanza G36 and Piper M350 are high-performance piston singles, while the Piper M500 is a single‑engine turboprop and the Embraer Phenom 100EV is a very light jet. In range, the Bonanza G36 is typically suited to shorter cross‑country trips (roughly in the 600–900 nm class depending on power settings and reserves), the M350 extends that somewhat (often around 1,000+ nm), and the M500 generally goes farther than either piston option (commonly around 1,000–1,400 nm). The Phenom 100EV is designed for faster, higher‑altitude jet travel and usually offers range comparable to or exceeding the M500 (often around 1,100–1,200+ nm), with higher cruise speeds than all three propeller aircraft. For passenger capacity, the Bonanza G36 is typically configured for six seats, the M350 commonly seats six, the M500 is often arranged for five to six depending on interior and payload, and the Phenom 100EV generally carries four to six passengers in a club-style cabin (plus crew).
