Embraer Executive Jets today announced its third aircraft refresh this year alone with the Phenom 300EV, adding Garmin Autoland, autobrake, rudder-by-wire system, and a slew of other improvements to the best-selling light jet. The move builds on the February launch of the Praetor 500E and 600E, both of which are now certified by the FAA, EASA, and Brazil’s ANAC. According to Embraer, the 300EV has completed flight testing and is expected to receive the same trio of approvals by year-end, with first deliveries set for late 2028. Price is $13.995 million (2026 dollars).
As the largest business jet equipped with Autoland, the Phenom 300EV can execute an automated landing in the unlikely event of pilot incapacitation. Landings and takeoffs are also assisted by autobrake, while a new Embraer-developed multipurpose electronic controller (MEC) integrates rudder-by-wire and other electronically controlled aircraft functions. All three are first-in-class features in the light jet category.
