Cessna Citation M2 vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx vs Piper M600 Sls

By category, the Cessna Citation M2 is a light twin‑engine business jet optimized for fast point‑to‑point travel, while the Daher TBM 960, Pilatus PC‑12 NGX, and Piper M600 SLS are single‑engine turboprops that trade some cruise speed for shorter-field flexibility and lower operating complexity. On range, the TBM 960 generally leads this group, typically capable of roughly 1,700+ nautical miles depending on configuration and reserves, making it well suited to longer nonstop legs for a turboprop. The PC‑12 NGX is also long‑legged at about 1,500+ nautical miles and is often favored when runway performance and cabin utility matter. The Citation M2’s range is broadly in the same neighborhood—around 1,500+ nautical miles—though real-world legs vary with payload and winds. The M600 SLS is typically shorter-range than the others, commonly around 1,400+ nautical miles. For passenger capacity, the Citation M2 is usually configured for about 6–7 passengers. The TBM 960 and M600 SLS typically seat about 5–6 passengers. The PC‑12 NGX has the largest cabin and most flexible seating, commonly 6–9 passengers in executive layouts (and more in commuter-type configurations).
