Daher Aircraft TBM 940

Introduced in March 2019 and certified by EASA that May, the TBM 940 replaced the 930 with an autothrottle, automatic ice detection and protection, and a redesigned cabin, and Garmin's HomeSafe emergency autoland later became available. It kept the 850-shp PT6A-66D, G3000 avionics and 330-knot cruise, and was succeeded by the TBM 960 in 2022.

In short: The Daher Aircraft TBM 940 is a Turboprop with a range of 1,730 nm, a cruise speed of 330 knots and room for 4 passengers. It lists at about $4.6M new and costs roughly $730 an hour to operate (estimate).
