A Tecnam P2010 215 HP costs approximately $437k (€405k) to $523k (€484k) to buy at 2025 market values, and about $37k (€34k) a year to own flying 80 hours, roughly $464 (€430) per flight hour all-in. It seats 4, cruises at 145 kt (167 mph) and has a published range of 720 nm (1,333 km), needing about 1,549 ft (472 m) of runway. Figures are indicative planning estimates compiled 2026-07, not a quote for any specific airframe.
The P2010 is Tecnam's four-seat certified single, a carbon fibre fuselage bonded to metal wings with a third door for the back seats, and the 215 hp version has the performance to match the looks. It is one of very few genuinely new designs in a class where most rivals are sixty years old. Newness is also the risk. The fleet is small, so the used market is thin and hard to price, and support depends on a dealer network rather than the universal parts availability the American types enjoy. Buy it new, near a dealer, and expect to keep it a long time.

A spacious and capable four-seat tourer, but the larger engine sacrifices some of the P2010 family's fuel-efficiency advantage.
Indicative cash costs at 2025 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 | $29k (€27k) | $734 (€680) | $622k (€576k) |
| 80 h / year | $37k (€34k) | $464 (€430) | $661k (€612k) |
| 120 h / year | $45k (€42k) | $374 (€347) | $700k (€648k) |
| 180 h / year | $57k (€52k) | $314 (€291) | $758k (€702k) |
Every figure above is built from a $22k (€20k) fixed annual base, covering hangarage, insurance, scheduled maintenance reserves and recurring airworthiness costs, plus $194 (€180) 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 $43k (€40k) 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.
Tecnam P2010 215 HP 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.
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.
An indicative 2025 market price for a Tecnam P2010 215 HP is $437k (€405k) to $523k (€484k). 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 Tecnam P2010 215 HP works out at roughly $37k (€34k) annually, which is about $464 (€430) 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 $194 (€180).
Published range is 720 nm (1,333 km). With 4 people aboard and realistic reserves, plan on a practical radius of about 482 nm rather than the brochure figure.
Plan on approximately 1,549 ft (472 m) for take-off. Check this against the actual runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading, all of which extend the requirement.
