Beechcraft King Air 360 Er vs Bell 525 Relentless vs Cessna 208b Grand Caravan Ex vs Piaggio Avanti Evo

The Beechcraft King Air 360ER and Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX are fixed‑wing turboprops, while the Piaggio Avanti EVO is a faster, higher‑performance turboprop, and the Bell 525 Relentless is a medium helicopter. For range, the King Air 360ER and Piaggio Avanti EVO are the longest‑legged in typical business use, generally around the 1,500–1,800 nm class depending on load and reserves. The Grand Caravan EX is shorter‑range, commonly around the 900–1,000+ nm class, optimized more for utility than long nonstop legs. The Bell 525’s range is usually in the 500–700 nm class, trading endurance for vertical lift and access to places runways can’t serve. For passenger capacity, the Grand Caravan EX typically carries the most in a commuter layout (often 9–14), the King Air 360ER usually seats about 6–9 in executive configurations, and the Avanti EVO commonly seats around 6–8. The Bell 525 is typically configured for roughly 10–16 depending on mission and interior, with offshore/utility layouts often higher than executive ones.
