Beechcraft King Air 360 Er vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Cessna 208b Grand Caravan Ex vs Piper M600 Sls

By category, the Bombardier Global 7500 is a long-range, ultra-long-haul large-cabin business jet designed for intercontinental missions at high speed and altitude. The Beechcraft King Air 360ER is a twin‑turboprop business/utility aircraft suited to regional travel, shorter runways, and flexible operations, trading speed for versatility. The Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX is a single‑engine turboprop utility aircraft optimized for rugged, short-field, cargo or commuter roles rather than executive jet performance. The Piper M600 SLS is a single‑engine turboprop personal/business aircraft aimed at owner-operators, offering modern avionics and efficiency with smaller cabin size. On range, the Global 7500 is in a different class at roughly 7,700 nautical miles, enabling true intercontinental flights. The King Air 360ER typically offers roughly 1,500–1,800 nautical miles depending on load and reserves. The M600 SLS is broadly similar in the ~1,300–1,500 nautical mile bracket. The Grand Caravan EX generally ranges around ~900–1,000 nautical miles, varying with payload and mission. Passenger capacity typically runs about 14–19 on the Global 7500, about 6–9 on the King Air 360ER, about 1–6 on the M600 SLS, and up to about 9–14 on the Grand Caravan EX depending on configuration.
