Cessna Citation Cj4 vs Cessna Citation Longitude vs Daher Kodiak 100 Series Iii vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Embraer Phenom 300e vs Pilatus Pc 24 vs Piper M500

By category, the Cessna Citation CJ4 and Embraer Phenom 300E are light jets optimized for fast, efficient business travel; the Pilatus PC-24 and Cessna Citation Longitude step up into the “super versatile” and super‑midsize classes respectively, offering more cabin volume and comfort, while the Daher TBM 960 and Piper M500 are high‑performance pressurized single‑engine turboprops, and the Daher Kodiak 100 Series III is a utility/STOL turboprop aimed at rugged, short or unimproved strips rather than executive speed. For range, the Citation Longitude is generally the longest-legged of this group (roughly 3,000+ nm), followed by the PC-24 and CJ4 (about 2,000+ nm class), with the Phenom 300E in a similar ballpark. The TBM 960 typically reaches into the mid‑1,000s to ~1,700 nm, the M500 is around ~1,000+ nm, and the Kodiak’s practical legs are usually shorter, often around ~1,000 nm depending on load and conditions. For passenger capacity, the Longitude commonly seats 8–12, the PC‑24 and CJ4 often 6–10, and the Phenom 300E typically 6–10. The TBM 960 and M500 are usually 4–6 passengers, while the Kodiak can carry up to about 10 (often configured 8–10).
