In this episode, we’re listing down our top contenders for the most fuel-efficient single-engine general aviation aircraft, while taking into account their burn rates together with each of their capabilities. You might just be surprised with our choice for the number one spot, so stick around until the end of the video and learn more about their specifications, performance, and current prices!
It’s quite a challenge to rank the most fuel-efficient single engines that are still in production since the actual fuel consumption varies depending on several factors, such as speed, range, and payload. There’s only a handful of aircraft with solid reputations as the most-fuel efficient pistons in the industry, like the Diamond DA40 and the Cessna Skyhawk, especially when it comes to their really low burn rates. However, this does not necessarily consider the cruise speed and maximum range at which the aircraft achieves optimum fuel efficiency while at full passenger capacity. So in this video, we’re going to try and do just that and give you some options that deserve to be looked into.
