Brazil’s National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC), the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) have granted type certification to Embraer’s Praetor 600E super-midsize business jet. Embraer announced the approvals on April 30, 2026, for the variant unveiled in February 2026.
The Praetor 600E retains the airframe, two Honeywell HTF7500E engines, fly-by-wire controls, and 4,018-nautical-mile (7,441 km) range of the Praetor 600. This performance supports nonstop flights such as London to New York or São Paulo to Miami with four passengers and NBAA IFR reserves. Takeoff field length is 4,436 feet (1,352 meters), allowing operations at airports like Aspen and London City.
Upgrades focus on the cabin, including an optional 42-inch 4K OLED Smart Window touchscreen for video conferencing, streaming, and live views from three fuselage cameras. A divan opposite the screen enables meeting or cinema configurations. The redesigned cabin management system offers smartphone app control, voice commands, Bluetooth audio, wireless charging, and RGB mood lighting. New in-house seats feature electric release, adjustable firmness, dual lumbar support, forward-tracking headrests, and a lounge position. The enlarged galley includes more storage and an ice drawer.
The jet includes the Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS) as standard, available as a retrofit for existing Praetor 600s. Other cabin enhancements will not be offered for retrofits. List price is $25.795 million, about 7-8% higher than the Praetor 600, which it will replace. First deliveries are set for the first quarter of 2029.
In the super-midsize segment, competitors include Bombardier’s Challenger 3500 and 650, Dassault’s Falcon 2000 family, Gulfstream G280, and Textron’s Cessna Citation Latitude and Longitude.
