Cirrus's 2026 North America price list puts a new SR22 at $937,900 and the turbocharged SR22T at $1,069,900. The newest used airplanes ask more than that: the median G7 SR22 in our sample asks $1,075,000. At the other end, an SR22 listed without a generation asks a median of $255,500.
The family is 7,069 aircraft on the FAA register, 4,016 SR22 and 3,053 SR22T, and it looks nothing like the old trainers. Most were built this century, and 64.5% of them are registered to LLCs. A used SR22 is a depreciation curve with a model-year ladder on it, and the ladder is steep.
What follows walks down the price curve, then looks at the two models, who owns the fleet, what the airplane costs to run and what the NTSB accident files record. Every figure comes from a named public source or a dated sample, and the sources are listed at the end.
Data used: FAA fleet through 2026-10-12; NTSB file through 2026-09-30; asking-price sample 2026-10-14.
What a new SR22 costs, and what that number means
Cirrus's 2026 North America price lists put the SR22 at $937,900 and the SR22T at $1,069,900. Those are the maker's standard prices, before the options, avionics choices and dealer terms that move a real quote. The turbo adds $132,000.
Both carry 4 seats and the same 3,400 lb maximum takeoff weight. The SR22 has a 310 hp Continental IO-550-N and 81 US gal of usable fuel. The SR22T has a 315 hp Continental TSIO-550-K, with 92 US gal usable, according to the FAA type certificate data sheet.
The price ladder runs one generation at a time
We gathered 361 Cirrus SR22 and SR22T listings from one marketplace on 14 October 2026, and 345 of them carried a usable asking price. Sellers label the airplane by generation, from G2 to G7, and the medians sort the family cleanly by it.
The gold bar is Cirrus's 2026 price for a new SR22. Teal bars are medians of asking prices. Groups with fewer than 5 priced listings are left out.
The slope is steady. The median G6 asks $784,500, 84% of a new SR22's price. The G3 asks $435,000, 46%, and an SR22 listed with no generation asks $255,500, 27%. At the top, the G7 asks $1,075,000 on 7 listings, above the list price itself. The sample cannot say why. Avionics, options and a seller's optimism all move an asking price, and it records none of them.
The median G7 SR22 in our sample has flown 393 hours. The median G2 has flown 2,174.
Airframe hours fall as the generations rise, from 2,174 for the G2 to 782 for the G6. They are airframe hours, not engine hours, and the listings do not say how the engine has fared.
The gold bar is Cirrus's 2026 price for a new SR22T. Teal bars are medians of asking prices. Groups with fewer than 5 priced listings are left out.
Now set the turbo beside the normally aspirated airplane, generation by generation. In the G2 the SR22T asks $329,000 against $316,000. In the G3 it is $430,000 against $435,000, in the G5 $593,000 against $607,000, and in the G6 $760,000 against $784,500. The order flips back in the G7, at $1,099,500 against $1,075,000.
Cirrus charges $132,000 more for a new SR22T. In this sample the used market pays little or nothing extra for the turbo within a generation, and in three of five generations it asks less. One marketplace on one day cannot say whether sellers or buyers are right.
One caution covers this whole section. It is one marketplace on one day, with 345 priced listings after we set aside 16 with no price. The labels are the sellers' own, and a bare SR22 label with no generation covers aircraft from several years. These are asking prices, not sales, and no individual listing is published. Prices were recorded to the nearest 1,000 dollars.
For the wider market, our guide to what a small plane costs puts the SR22 in context. Cirrus also builds a smaller piston single, covered in what a Cirrus SR20 costs, and a jet, covered in what a Cirrus Vision Jet costs. The maker as a whole is covered in what Cirrus aircraft cost.

Two airplanes, ten years apart
The FAA's type certificate data sheet covers the SR22 from 2000 and the SR22T from 2010. The SR22T adds a turbocharged TSIO-550-K, and the data sheet gives it more usable fuel. For where the SR22 sits among the rest, the guide to the main types of planes helps.
- 310 hp, Continental
- 3,400 lb maximum takeoff weight
- 81 US gal usable fuel
- 315 hp, Continental
- 3,400 lb maximum takeoff weight

A young fleet owned by LLCs
The FAA register lists 7,069 aircraft in the SR22 family, and 6,799 of them (96.2%) hold a valid registration, while 270 carry another status. Of the whole family, 6,558 records have a usable build year, and 6,444 of those are valid. That counts paperwork, not airplanes in the air: a valid registration says nothing about whether the aircraft is airworthy or flying.
- 2,3192000s
- 1,7682010s
- 2,4712020s
511 records have a blank or invalid build year and are left out of the chart.
37.7% of the registered SR22 aircraft with a usable build year were built in the 2020s.
The 2020s are the biggest decade on the register already, with 2,471 aircraft against 1,768 for the whole of the 2010s, 703 more. The 2000s account for 2,319.
LLCs hold 64.5% of the register, 4,557 aircraft, which is far more than any other owner type. Individuals and corporations are level at 12.9% each, co-owned aircraft hold 5.2%, and non-citizen corporations 4.2%. The registry records the owner category, not how the airplane is used.
Florida (9.0%), California (8.5%) and Texas (7.4%) lead the state table. Fourth place is Delaware, with 446 registrations (6.3%), and with LLCs so dominant that is a registration-address effect: LLC and trust registrations can carry a Delaware address. It says nothing about where those aircraft fly. Minnesota is fifth at 4.9%.

The list price is only the entry fee
After the purchase the airplane wants fuel, an engine fund, an annual inspection, insurance and somewhere to sleep. Only some of those have a published number worth printing.
Fuel
Plane and Pilot's specification table for the 2004 SR22 gives 16.4 US gal/hour at 75 percent power, 15 US gal/hour at 65 percent and 13.9 US gal/hour at 55 percent. That is one SR22 from one model year, not the whole family, so the calculator leaves fuel burn for you to fill in. A full 81 US gal tank at the higher burn is about 4.9 hours of flying before reserves.
Turn the burn into money with your own fuel price. At an example $6.00 a gallon, the 2004 SR22 burns $98.40 of fuel an hour at 75 percent power. At $9.00 it is $147.60. Those prices are examples chosen to show the arithmetic, not market data.
The engine
Both engines are Continentals, the IO-550-N and the TSIO-550-K. Continental's current overhaul schedule sits behind an account login we could not use, so we publish no overhaul interval for either. Ask the shop that would do the work. The engine is the line item that arrives all at once.
The rest
The FAA describes an annual inspection interval of 12 calendar months for ordinary US personal aircraft ownership. Insurance, hangar or tie-down fees, labour rates and loan terms depend too much on the owner, the airfield and the airplane for one published number to mean anything, so this page prints none. Add your own quotes to the fuel figures above and you have a budget that belongs to you. More on the wider costs of owning an aircraft sits in our ownership section.
Renting is the benchmark your own figure has to justify. Our guide to how much it costs to rent a Cessna 172 shows the other side of the ledger for a smaller airplane.

What the accident files record
Every entry in the NTSB files is a real event, and the counts are all this page claims to know about them. The NTSB lists 411 accidents involving SR22-family aircraft from 2000 through 2025. Of those, 141, or 34.3%, were fatal, and 267 people died in them.
- 2000
- 2005
- 2010
- 2015
- 2020
- 402025
Counts only. The NTSB does not record how many hours the family flew, so these bars are not rates.
The yearly count climbs from 2 in 2001 to 40 in 2025, the highest in the file. The fleet grew to 7,069 aircraft over those years, and the data holds no flying hours to divide by, so the climb is not a measure of risk. The NTSB's most recent records can also be preliminary.
The first coded phase is the one attached to the first event in the NTSB's sequence for each accident. Accidents without a coded sequence, or with unmapped codes, sit in separate rows of the full table.
Unlike the older Cessnas and Pipers, this record is not led by landing. Enroute begins 21.9% of the accidents, just ahead of landing at 21.4% and approach at 17.0%. The data cannot say why. One reading is that a faster airplane on longer trips spends more of its flying away from the airport.
The NTSB's own findings point at people and machines together. Of the 272 accidents with causal findings in its current coding, 79.0% involve personnel issues and 75.4% involve aircraft issues. An accident can carry several findings, so the shares overlap and do not add up to the whole.

What to take from the numbers
- Buy a generation, not a model name. In our sample the median ask climbs from $255,500 for an SR22 with no generation stated to $1,075,000 for the G7, with the G3 at $435,000 and the G6 at $784,500.
- Do not assume the turbo costs more used. Cirrus asks $132,000 more for a new SR22T, but within a generation the used medians are close and in three of five generations the turbo asks less.
- Treat an asking price as an opening line. These are what sellers want. The sample cannot see what buyers pay.
- Ask for engine time since overhaul, not only airframe hours. The airframe medians in our sample run from 393 to 2,174, and the engine's own history is a separate number.
- Do not read a valid registration as a clean bill of health. Status V is paperwork, not an inspection.
- Budget with your own quotes. At 16.4 US gal/hour and an example $6.00 a gallon, a 2004 SR22 burns $98.40 of fuel an hour, before the engine fund, the annual inspection, insurance and storage.
Questions buyers ask
How much does a new Cirrus SR22 cost?
Cirrus's 2026 North America price list puts the SR22 at $937,900 and the SR22T at $1,069,900. Real quotes vary with options and dealer terms.
How much does a used Cirrus SR22 cost?
In a one-day sample of asking prices on Controller.com, the median ask was $255,500 for an SR22 with no generation stated, $435,000 for a G3, $784,500 for a G6 and $1,075,000 for a G7. Those are asking prices, not sales.
How much does the SR22 burn per hour?
Plane and Pilot gives 16.4 US gal/hour at 75 percent power for a 2004 SR22, which is $98.40 an hour at an example $6.00 a gallon. Engine reserve, insurance, storage and inspections come on top, so price them with your own quotes.
How many Cirrus SR22 aircraft are there?
The FAA register lists 7,069 aircraft in the SR22 family, 6,799 with a valid registration: 4,016 SR22 and 3,053 SR22T.
How many Cirrus SR22 accidents has the NTSB recorded?
The NTSB files hold 411 accidents from 2000 through 2025, 141 of them fatal. These are counts, not rates, because flying hours by model are not published.
