Launched in 2009 by Brazilian manufacturer Embraer as a larger version of its successful Phenom 100, the Phenom 300 has since become a firm favourite in the private jet charter market.
It was the most-delivered business jet in the world between 2013 and 2017 - and again in 2019. It features high performance and comparable long range, whilst maintaining the stylish ramp presence and cost-efficiency of its small sibling. The enhanced $10 million Phenom 300E version followed in 2018 - with a slightly larger cabin size and more customisation for the interior.
In February 2020 Embraer announced further enhancements to the Phenom 300E including a speed increase, its Bossa Nova interior (which was originally introduced for the larger Praetors) and avionics upgrades.
