    Piaggio Aero unveils the Avanti Evo Business Aircraft

    The instantly recognizable lines of Avanti EVO are the product of countless hours of research and development to create the perfect flying machine. More than just beautiful and distinctive, Avanti EVO represents some of the most advanced aerodynamic concepts and manufacturing techniques in all of aviation. At the center of its efficiencies and innovations is the historic '3LS' Three Lifting Surface design, which aids safety, reduces drag, and significantly aids efficiencies. The beauty of Avanti EVO lies not only in its appeal, but in its ability.

    The design aids its historic efficiency and speed, enhances safety, helps the pilots throughout flight, and actively benefits its passengers too. The decision to fly EVO is underlined by the compelling return on investment it can offer, with class-leading efficiencies and ease of maintenance, and a strong sense of ecological responsibility. Avanti EVO truly brings a new era of speed and minimized environmental impact to life. Not only is Avanti EVO a thing of remarkable beauty, it is a thing of remarkable intelligence and capability.

    Innovation in creating the most aerodynamic airframe brings benefits inside and out to Avanti EVO, so passengers get an elevated experience in flight. The enormous stand-up cabin is the biggest in class at 5ft 9in (1.75m) high and 6ft 1in (1.85m) wide - far roomier than very expensive jets and giving passengers space to work and relax. A huge rear cabin volume of 375ft3 (12.88m3) for up to 9 passengers means the most space-per-seat in class, allowing the Avanti EVO to excel as a flying office and give more time in the working day. The focus on cabin relaxation extends to the low cabin altitude. Retaining sea level cabin altitude to 24,000ft, rising to only 6600ft cabin altitude at the aircraft's 41,000ft ceiling. Lower cabin altitude means passengers disembark feeling fresher and more revitalized.

    Avanti EVO brings greater range and flexibility to give operators and passengers more options and flexibility than ever before. A new Increased Range Configuration option raises range to a huge 1720nm* (1979 miles, 3185km) to allow transcontinental and US coast-to-coast flights with just a single stop. Meanwhile Avanti EVO's remarkable airfield performance brings runways of under 1000m into profile. Also its steep approach and climb certification mean airfield and destination options are wider than those available to any jet or airliner, and closer to final destinations.
