Cessna Commits to Efficient Turbo-Diesel Aircraft
Aviation industry heavyweight Cessna is bringing turbo-diesel power to its small aircraft lineup. The airplane maker will begin equipping its popular four-seat 182 Skylane model with a new engine that offers improved efficiency and the ability to burn a fuel widely available around the world. The new airplane, called the Cessna 182 NXT, made its first appearance at Airventure here in Oshkosh and will match the performance of the existing gasoline-powered version, while burning around 30 percent less fuel.
