As a global leader, Cirrus has delivered over 10,000 SR Series aircraft and nearly 600 Vision Jets worldwide.

This success reflects Cirrus’s commitment to safety, innovation, and customer satisfaction.
SR Series G7 Features
The SR Series G7 aircraft now includes the advanced Vision Jet flight deck with Garmin’s Perspective Touch+™ avionics, making transitions between Cirrus models seamless for pilots. The G7 offers a touchscreen-controlled flight deck, a luxurious cabin, and intuitive features that enhance pilot and passenger experiences alike. Key attributes of the Perspective Touch+ include user-friendly touch interfaces, high-resolution displays, and enhanced safety systems that improve situational awareness.
The G7 model is equipped with increased legroom, convenience enhancements, and the Cirrus IQ™ mobile app, providing real-time insights into aircraft health. These innovations have earned the SR Series G7 accolades like the 2024 Flieger Award and the 2024 Robb Report Best of the Best Award in the Enhanced Flight Deck category.
G2+ Vision Jet Features
The G2+ Vision Jet includes a range of high-performance features, such as optimized engine performance, inflight Wi-Fi, and bold color options. Its enhanced takeoff capability allows access to 40% more airports, even under challenging conditions like high temperatures or elevations. Additional safety and connectivity upgrades, including Auto Radar and Cirrus IQ, provide pilots with improved situational awareness during flight.
Notable technologies in the G2+ Vision Jet include Autothrottle, the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System® (CAPS®), Safe Return™ Emergency Autoland, and Garmin’s Perspective Touch+™. The Vision Jet is also compatible with sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), contributing to its low carbon footprint as one of the quietest, most efficient jets available.
The Vision Jet has been recognized with the prestigious Robert J. Collier Trophy for pioneering the world’s first single-engine Personal Jet™ and implementing CAPS. It was further awarded a second Collier Trophy for the inclusion of Safe Return™ Autoland, powered by Garmin®.
