How Much Does a Diamond DA62 Cost?

Plane and Pilot listed a new DA62 at $1,080,000 in 2017, and Diamond publishes no current price we could find. A used DA62 asks a median of $1,348,260. The registry, the sale listings and the accident files show what the airplane costs and what the price tag leaves out.

Diamond does not publish a DA62 price. Plane and Pilot listed one at $1,080,000 in 2017, and the used market has since moved well past it: the median DA62 in our sample asks $1,348,260, 1.25 times that figure, and the newest aircraft ask a median of $1,700,000.

The DA62 is a five-seat twin that burns diesel, and it is a young airplane. The FAA approved it in 2019, so the whole fleet is recent: 174 aircraft on the US register, almost all built in the 2020s. That makes the used market thin and the prices closely tied to build year.

What follows looks at what a DA62 asks, how the price steps up with age, who owns the fleet, what it takes to run and what the NTSB files record. Every figure comes from a named public source or a dated sample, and the sources are listed at the end.

What a new DA62 costs: no current number

We could not find a current Diamond price list, and the maker's own pages do not publish a DA62 price. The most recent dated figure we could verify is Plane and Pilot's 2017 table, which lists the airplane at $1,080,000. It is a reference point, not a quote. Ask a Diamond dealer for a current price with the equipment you want, because options, taxes and delivery move the total.

The FAA's type certificate data sheet is short on surprises. The DA 62 was approved on 2019-11-04, with 2 engines from Austro Engine, the E4P, each rated at 132 kW per engine. It seats 5 seats as standard and 7 seats in the optional layout. Maximum takeoff weight is 4,407 lb, rising to 5,071 lb with the optional increase, and the fuel system holds 50 US gal usable.

The price steps up with the build year

We gathered 51 DA62 listings from one marketplace on 18 October 2026, and 41 of them carried a usable asking price: 10 said to call for the price. The priced listings run from $999,000 to $1,966,213, with a median of $1,348,260 and a median airframe of 560 hours.

  4. Built 2025 or 2026$1,700,000

The gold bar is the 2017 Plane and Pilot price, not a current list price. Teal bars are medians of asking prices. Bands with fewer than 5 priced listings are left out.

The oldest band, aircraft built 2016 to 2019, asks a median of $1,151,750 on 14 listings, from $999,000 to $1,348,260, and the median airframe has flown 855 hours. The 2020 to 2024 band asks $1,387,000 on 18 listings. The newest aircraft, built in 2025 or 2026, ask $1,700,000 on 9, and they have barely flown: the median is 42 hours.

A near-new DA62 asks 1.48 times what a 2016 to 2019 airplane asks, and has flown about 813 fewer hours.

The oldest listings predate the FAA approval of 2019. That is not an error: the airplane was certified in Europe first, and early examples reached the US register later. One caution covers this whole section. It is one marketplace on one day, these are asking prices, not sales, and no individual listing is published. Prices were recorded as shown on the site, and some dealers list the same airplane more than once.

For the wider market, our guide to what a small plane costs puts the DA62 in context, and what Diamond aircraft cost covers the maker. The DA62's smaller twin sibling is covered in what a Diamond DA42 costs, and the single-engine DA40 in what a Diamond DA40 costs.

One model, five seats, two diesels

There is only one DA62 approval on the FAA sheet, and the register holds a single model label for it: 174 aircraft, every one a DA 62. The sheet does not state horsepower for the Austro Engine E4P in the rows we could read. It gives 132 kW per engine at 2,300 rpm, with 126 kW per engine at 2,200 rpm as the maximum continuous setting, so this page prints those kilowatt figures as the sheet states them.

Approved 2019DA 62
  • 2 engines, both diesel, from Austro Engine
  • 4,407 lb maximum takeoff weight
  • 50 US gal usable fuel

Two options change the airplane. The sheet allows 7 seats in place of five, and an auxiliary fuel option adds 36.4 US gal of usable fuel. For where the airplane sits among the rest, the guide to the main types of planes helps, and how aircraft engines differ explains the piston and diesel families.

A young fleet owned by companies

The FAA register lists 174 DA62 aircraft, and 172 of them (98.9%) hold a valid registration, while 2 carry another status. Of the whole family, 119 records have a usable build year and 117 of those are valid. 55 records have no usable year here, mostly because they carry a build year before the FAA sheet's 2019 approval or no year at all. That counts paperwork, not airplanes in the air: a valid registration says nothing about whether the aircraft is airworthy or flying.

The 2020s account for 109 aircraft (91.6%) and the 2010s for 10.

LLCs hold 70.7% of the register and corporations 14.9%. Individuals hold only 9.2%. The registry records the owner category, not how the airplane is used, but a company or LLC owning a twin diesel usually means a business, a charter or a training operator.

Texas (12.1%) holds the most registrations, 5 more than Florida (16). Delaware follows with 11, and Utah has 9. The state field is the registrant's address, not where the aircraft fly.

The list price is only the entry fee

After the purchase the airplane wants fuel, a fund for two engines, an annual inspection, insurance and somewhere to sleep. Only some of those have a published number worth printing.

Fuel

Diamond's own configuration data gives the DA62 11.8 US gal/hour, which Diamond also states as 44.7 l/hour, at 60 percent power, and Diamond states that as the total for both engines. It is one configuration at one power setting, not every way to fly the airplane, so the calculator leaves fuel burn for you to fill in. Diesel fuel has a different price from avgas, so price it with your own quotes. The way a small airplane's fuel reaches its engines is covered in types of aircraft fuel systems.

The engines

The sheet names the Austro Engine E4P, installed here as the E4P-C. We could not retrieve the maker's current overhaul interval, because it sits in a partner portal, so we publish none. The engine fund is the line item that arrives all at once, and a twin has two.

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 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 single-engine 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 2 accidents involving DA62 aircraft from 2019 through 2025. 1 of them was fatal, 50.0% of the record, and 4 people died in it. The airplane has existed only since 2019, and the fleet is small.

One accident is recorded in 2019 and one in 2022. With numbers this small, no trend should be read into them, and the data holds no flying hours to divide by. Both began in the approach phase of flight.

What to take from the numbers

  • Expect a thin market. Our sample had 41 priced listings out of 51, and 10 said to call for a price.
  • Price follows build year. The median ask is $1,151,750 in the 2016 to 2019 band and $1,387,000 in the 2020 to 2024 band. The newest aircraft ask $1,700,000.
  • Treat an asking price as an opening line. These are what sellers want. The sample cannot see what buyers pay.
  • Get both engines' histories in writing. A twin diesel has two engines to maintain, and no listing summary replaces the records.
  • Do not read a valid registration as a clean bill of health. Status V is paperwork, not an inspection.

Questions buyers ask

How much does a new Diamond DA62 cost?

We could not find a current Diamond price list. Plane and Pilot's 2017 table listed the airplane at $1,080,000. Ask a dealer for a current quote.

How much does a used Diamond DA62 cost?

In a one-day sample of asking prices on Controller.com, the median ask was $1,348,260, from $999,000 to $1,966,213. Those are asking prices, not sales, and the sample is small.

How many Diamond DA62 aircraft are there?

The FAA register lists 174 aircraft, 172 with a valid registration.

How many Diamond DA62 accidents has the NTSB recorded?

The NTSB files hold 2 accidents from 2019 through 2025, 1 of them fatal. These are counts, not rates, because flying hours by model are not published.
