A Cirrus Vision Jet G2 costs approximately $2.25m (€2.08m) to $2.69m (€2.49m) to buy at 2020 market values, and about $287k (€266k) a year to own flying 80 hours, roughly $3,591 (€3,325) per flight hour all-in. It seats 7, cruises at 311 kt (358 mph) and has a published range of 1,200 nm (2,222 km), needing about 3,399 ft (1,036 m) of runway.

The PlaneFit verdict

The Vision Jet G2 is the second generation of Cirrus's single-engine personal jet, adding cabin and performance improvements to the concept that opened jet ownership to step-up piston and turboprop owners, complete with CAPS and Safe Return autoland. On the used market it is the more attainable Vision Jet. Its constraints are the concept's constraints: runway requirements, cabin size and a maximum-fuel payload that tightens with a full cabin. For an owner who wants the simplest possible route into jet travel with a safety net, it is unusually positioned.

The ownership trade-off

The simplest route into owner-flown jet travel, but runway, cabin and maximum-fuel payload remain limiting.

Cost picture at different usage

Indicative cash costs at 2020 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 useAnnual cash costEffective cost / hFive-year cash outlay
40 h / year$235k (€218k)$5,886 (€5,450)$3.62m (€3.36m)
80 h / year$287k (€266k)$3,591 (€3,325)$3.88m (€3.6m)

180 h / year$417k (€386k)$2,316 (€2,144)$4.53m (€4.2m)

What the estimate covers

Every figure above is built from a $184k (€170k) fixed annual base, covering hangarage, insurance, scheduled maintenance reserves and recurring airworthiness costs, plus $1,296 (€1,200) 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 $336k (€311k) 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 Vision Jet G2 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.

Where it fits well

  • 311 kt (358 mph) cruise supports fast regional travel.
  • 1,200 nm (2,222 km) published range creates a practical planning radius of about 804 nm with 4 occupants.
  • 1,585 lb (719 kg) realistic payload proxy and 7 seats define the usable cabin mission.

Limitations to price honestly

  • The simplest route into owner-flown jet travel, but runway, cabin and maximum-fuel payload remain limiting.
  • $184k (€170k) fixed annual planning base before flying a single hour.
  • Approximate 3,399 ft (1,036 m) take-off requirement must be checked against runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading.

Recommended missions

  • Family and small-group touring with a weight-and-balance check for every trip.
  • Longer regional missions, with reserves and payload reducing brochure range.
  • Time-sensitive business travel where dispatch reliability justifies the cost.

What you need to be qualified to fly a Cirrus Vision Jet G2

On top of a pilot certificate, this aircraft obliges the person flying it to hold the following. Each one is time and money before the first trip, and insurers usually attach their own minimums on top.

  • Type rating. This aircraft is turbojet-powered, so 14 CFR 61.31(a) requires a type rating for the specific type regardless of weight. Expect a formal initial course at a training provider and recurrent training every year, both of which insurers normally make a condition of cover.

US requirements under 14 CFR 61.31, stated for orientation and not as advice. PlaneFit is not an aviation authority or a training organisation. Other authorities set different rules, and the current regulation and your instructor are what govern.

Common questions about the Cirrus Vision Jet G2

How much does a Cirrus Vision Jet G2 cost?

An indicative 2020 market price for a Cirrus Vision Jet G2 is $2.25m (€2.08m) to $2.69m (€2.49m). 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.

What does a Cirrus Vision Jet G2 cost per hour to operate?

Flying 80 hours a year, a Cirrus Vision Jet G2 works out at roughly $287k (€266k) annually, which is about $3,591 (€3,325) 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 $1,296 (€1,200).

How far can a Cirrus Vision Jet G2 fly?

Published range is 1,200 nm (2,222 km). With 4 people aboard and realistic reserves, plan on a practical radius of about 804 nm rather than the brochure figure.

What do you need to be qualified to fly a Cirrus Vision Jet G2?

Beyond a pilot certificate, a Cirrus Vision Jet G2 requires type rating. This aircraft is turbojet-powered, so 14 CFR 61.31(a) requires a type rating for the specific type regardless of weight. Expect a formal initial course at a training provider and recurrent training every year, both of which insurers normally make a condition of cover. These are US requirements and are stated for orientation; confirm them against the current regulation and an instructor.

What runway does a Cirrus Vision Jet G2 need?

Plan on approximately 3,399 ft (1,036 m) for take-off. Check this against the actual runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading, all of which extend the requirement.
