Beechcraft Kingair Denali vs Cessna Grand Caravan Ex vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx vs Piper M600 Sls

All five are single‑engine turboprops except the Beechcraft King Air Denali, which is a newer‑generation twin‑engine turboprop positioned between traditional King Air utility and higher‑end executive travel. In category, the Cessna Grand Caravan EX is the most utility‑oriented, optimized for rugged, short/rough-field work and high payload flexibility, while the Pilatus PC‑12 NGX and Daher TBM 960 are pressurized executive singles aimed at faster, longer business trips; the Piper M600 SLS is a lighter, owner‑flown personal turboprop in the same general mission but at a smaller scale. On range, the TBM 960 typically leads among these singles for long, fast legs, with the PC‑12 NGX close behind depending on load and reserves. The Denali is expected to offer competitive range for a twin, generally in the same broad class as the executive singles. The M600 SLS is solid for regional trips but usually shorter‑legged than TBM/PC‑12. The Grand Caravan EX is typically the shortest‑range, trading speed and distance for utility. For passenger capacity, the Grand Caravan EX carries the most (often up to around 9 passengers), the PC‑12 NGX and Denali commonly seat about 6–9 depending on layout, while the TBM 960 and M600 SLS are usually configured around 4–6 passengers plus pilot.
