A Cirrus SR22T G7+ costs approximately $923k (€855k) to $1.1m (€1.02m) to buy at 2026 market values, and about $83k (€77k) a year to own flying 80 hours, roughly $1,042 (€965) per flight hour all-in. It seats 5, cruises at 213 kt (245 mph) and has a published range of 1,021 nm (1,891 km), needing about 2,080 ft (634 m) of runway. Figures are indicative planning estimates compiled 2026-07, not a quote for any specific airframe.
The turbocharged SR22T trades some useful load for the ability to climb into the low flight levels and cruise fast where the air is thin, making it the Cirrus for owners who fly long legs, cross weather or operate from high terrain. It keeps every G7+ strength, CAPS, Perspective automation and strong resale, and adds turbo speed. The turbo system also adds heat, fuel flow and maintenance, and full-fuel payload is lower than the normally aspirated SR22. Choose it for the mission profile, not the badge.
The SR22T is the turbocharged SR22, built for high-altitude, weather-topping missions. Built-in oxygen and a turbo engine let it cruise in the high teens, while keeping the same cabin, Perspective automation and CAPS parachute as the normally aspirated aircraft.
Turbocharging, oxygen, ice-protection equipment and CAPS add inspection and replacement events beyond the normally aspirated aircraft. Their timing and price vary by generation, equipment and region, so the aircraft's maintenance status and current quotations must replace a generic annual figure. Engine temperature history, recurrent transition training, subscriptions and tyre and brake use also belong in the ownership plan.
Owner-operators who want the closest thing to a jet mission in a piston single and regularly fly long legs over high or weather-prone terrain.
Pilots sensitive to maintenance bills, or who mostly fly short, low-altitude weekend hops.

Excellent high-altitude speed, but the turbo system adds heat, fuel burn and maintenance while useful payload is lower than the SR22.
Indicative cash costs at 2026 market values, before financing, depreciation and tax. The fixed base is the same whether the aircraft flies or not, so the effective hourly cost falls as utilisation rises.
| Annual use | Annual cash cost | Effective cost / h | Five-year cash outlay |
|---|---|---|---|
| 40 h / year | $67k (€62k) | $1,663 (€1,540) | $1.34m (€1.24m) |
| 80 h / year | $83k (€77k) | $1,042 (€965) | $1.42m (€1.31m) |
| 120 h / year | $100k (€93k) | $835 (€773) | $1.5m (€1.39m) |
| 180 h / year | $125k (€116k) | $697 (€646) | $1.63m (€1.51m) |
Every figure above is built from a $50k (€46k) fixed annual base, covering hangarage, insurance, scheduled maintenance reserves and recurring airworthiness costs, plus $421 (€390) per hour flown for fuel, reserves and consumables. It is a planning model for comparing aircraft and testing utilisation, not a maintenance programme quote, insurance quote or pre-buy assessment.
Older examples add calendar-driven maintenance: a 2011-built airframe is estimated at $89k (€83k) per year at 80 hours. Airframe and engine time, maintenance and damage history, avionics, equipment, geography and tax treatment move a real transaction further than the model year does, so price the aircraft in front of you, not the model. A cheaper example carrying deferred maintenance can be the more expensive aircraft once the first annual inspection is complete.
Cirrus SR22T G7+ cost guide answers the same figures as standalone purchase and ownership questions, and the ownership cost calculator lets you replace these assumptions with your own hours and fixed costs.
Nothing beyond a pilot certificate for the category and class. With fixed tricycle gear and no endorsement requirement of its own, this is among the simplest certified aircraft to qualify in, which is a real part of why it is cheap to insure and easy to check out in.

An indicative 2026 market price for a Cirrus SR22T G7+ is $923k (€855k) to $1.1m (€1.02m). This is a planning estimate normalised across the market, not a quote for a specific airframe. Condition, engine time remaining, avionics and damage history move the real number more than the model year does.
Flying 80 hours a year, a Cirrus SR22T G7+ works out at roughly $83k (€77k) annually, which is about $1,042 (€965) per flight hour all-in once fixed costs are spread across those hours. The direct cost per hour alone, covering fuel, reserves and consumables, is about $421 (€390).
Published range is 1,021 nm (1,891 km). With 4 people aboard and realistic reserves, plan on a practical radius of about 684 nm rather than the brochure figure.
Plan on approximately 2,080 ft (634 m) for take-off. Check this against the actual runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading, all of which extend the requirement.
Direct comparisons against the models buyers most often weigh against this one.
