Melbourne, Florida, July 14, 2026 – Embraer (NYSE: EMBJ) today announced the Phenom 300EV, the latest evolution of the world’s best-selling light jet for 14 consecutive years. The world’s fastest and furthest-flying light jet is now updated with intuitive safety technology, including Garmin® Emergency Autoland, and incorporates a series of performance and interior enhancements designed to amplify its renowned capabilities and refine the cabin’s utility benefiting the customer experience.
As the largest business jet equipped with Garmin® Emergency Autoland, the Phenom 300EV can execute a fully automated landing in the unlikely event of pilot incapacitation. Landings and takeoffs are also supported by class-exclusive Autobrake, for further safety and comfort. Enabling these capabilities, a new Embraer-developed Multi-Purpose Electronic Controller (MEC), integrates rudder-by-wire and other electronically controlled aircraft functions, contributing to reduced pilot workload and simplified maintenance. Additional enhancements, as part of Garmin G3000 Prodigy Touch™, include runway and taxi situational awareness, based on Garmin’s 3D Taxiway Routing and Runway Occupancy Awareness (ROA), synthetic vision guidance system (SVGS), FANS 1/A+, RNP AR 0.3, and inertial reference system (IRS). These complement features like Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS), Autothrottle, and Emergency Descent Mode. Together, these systems expand the aircraft’s capabilities, focused on safety and reduced workload across a wide range of operating conditions.
Performance updates include an extended range of up to 2,055 nautical miles and an increase in maximum zero fuel weight, adding approximately 430 pounds of payload capacity. The Phenom 300EV also introduces new True Blue Power® lithium-ion batteries and LED taxi and landing lights designed to support improved reliability and dispatch performance.
