Economical and dependable single-engine turboprop performance with proven dispatch reliability allows the Caravan to adapt to a wide variety of missions.
Since its introduction, the Cessna® Caravan® has consistently defined versatility and performance, keeping you ahead of the competition. Operators in the world’s most demanding environments immediately adopted the rugged, dependable turboprop and have been rewarded with unparalleled dispatch reliability. The powerful, efficient, ultra-dependable 675-horsepower PT6A-114A turbine engine gives the Caravan its exceptional payload capabilities. On top of more than 30 years of proven capability comes even greater value with the Caravan’s Cessna factory warranty, parts availability and lower direct operating costs.
The Caravan makes its own business case. Its legendary reliability ensures that you stay on schedule, not on the tarmac. The Caravan takes to the water with uncompromising speed and payload. Like all Caravan models, the Amphibian is both easy and economical to maintain and far more fuel-efficient than its competitors. Regional airlines and charter services serving low-volume routes or traveling to remote destinations count on the Caravan to deliver more payload and serve more customers for healthier revenue on every trip.
