Main trade-off	Fast, refined and highly respected, but six seats are mainly a cabin-size claim once fuel and baggage are considered.	The SR22T G7 combines 5-seat piston-aircraft utility with about 1,046 NM reported range and about 183 kt reported cruise, while payload, runway and operating-cost figures remain indicative and should be verified for the specific aircraft before making a decision.	Excellent cabin access and useful load, but turbocharged fuel burn and maintenance make it expensive for light private use.
