NEW SR22 TURBO

The key feature in the new SR22T is the availability of the Teledyne Continental Motors (TCM) twin-turbocharged TSIO-550-K engine. This engine installation was co-developed via a unique partnership between engineers at TCM and Cirrus Aircraft and is not currently available in any other production aircraft.

Starting with the latest generation SR22 airframe, design improvements for SR22T include the unique installation of the TSIO-550-K engine fully backed by a TCM factory warranty, smoother and lighter nose landing gear and a redesigned cowl with dedicated induction inlets and exit air louvers for improved cooling. The SR22T also features new environmental control system hardware that supports up to 50 degrees of additional cabin heating capability at all altitudes. Finally, all SR22T standard and customer optional systems – flight into known icing, environmental systems, charts, weather, including engine operations, and more – integrate seamlessly with the Cirrus Perspective by Garmin™ cockpit.

Performance is also upgraded in SR22T. Notable enhancements include improved takeoff and climb, quieter takeoff and climb noise levels, higher useful load and better deceleration from high-speed.

THE SPEED YOU NEED

Cirrus offers you the smartest and most efficient turbo available – giving you the speed you need and access to the flight levels to get over terrain and weather at your command. Finally, not just a turbo, but a total package that gives you incredible performance combined with the comfort you'd expect to find in a luxury car.

 

At Cirrus, we don't claim to have the fastest turbo on the market. We pride ourselves on being honest about the speeds our customers will see with our SR22 and SR22 Turbo aircraft.

With technology that’s descended from jets, Cirrus Perspective has set a new standard in avionics available to pilots of Cirrus aircraft. Designed for maximum capability and intuitive use, Cirrus Perspective with Synthetic Vision Technology offers pilots unparalleled situational awareness, the option to incorporate an available Enhanced Vision System, and a smooth-flying and sophisticated autopilot. Add it all up and Cirrus Perspective reduces pilot workload while increasing safety and utility. Once you fly it, there’s no going back.

 

The new perspective in avionics
As a pilot, you sit in a cockpit and experience the world in ways others can only imagine. As leaders in technology and navigation, Cirrus and Garmin sat in the cockpit and re-imagined ways to revolutionize the flying experience. Now Cirrus Perspective makes that new vision a reality in the airplane. With aspirations to reinvent extraordinary in the personal aircraft cockpit, we developed integrated technology and features found in no other general aviation aircraft. We included new safety features to reduce your work load and anxiety by giving you more time to think and improving flight environment manageability. Ultimately, with Cirrus Perspective you get a smoother, more precise flying experience while all the time knowing you are flying smarter, flying safer. Take a closer look at Cirrus Perspective by Garmin and you’ll understand why we recreated the cockpit using this new perspective.

TURBO TIP For Smart Buyers


Before you buy a turbo from another manufacturer, ask yourself a few questions to find out if the speed is safe for the engine.

?How are their high altitude speeds achieved?
?Do these speed claims require high power, high fuel flow, and high CHTs?
?Where will you typically operate -- in the 11,000 - 18,000 ft range?
?How does their turbocharged aircraft compare to the Cirrus Turbo when operating at similar conditions for power, fuel flow, altitude, and the very important engine CHTs?
While some manufacturers boast top speeds in the 230 kts range, look a little closer and you'll find disclaimers in their POH about how those speeds may be in an operating and temperature range that may not be safe for the engine. Speeds like these can be achieved only by climbing to 25,000 ft on a perfect day. Most pilots flying turbocharged aircraft, however, will operate in the 11,000 - 18,000 ft range where unrealistic speed claims of other manufacturers are not realizable and their aircraft perform 20-30 kts slower than the 230+ kts speed their customers were promised in their ads.
