Specifications
The Diamond DA62 features a length of 9.19 m (30 ft 2 in), a height of 2.82 m (9 ft 3 in), and a wingspan of 14.55 m (47 ft 9 in). It can accommodate up to 7 passengers and has an empty weight of 1,590 kg (3,505 lbs). The maximum takeoff mass is 2,300 kg (5,071 lbs), with a useful load of 710 kg (1,565 lbs). The aircraft has a total fuel capacity of 326 liters (86 US gallons), divided between the main and auxiliary tanks.
Performance
The DA62 has a maximum speed of 356 km/h (192 knots) at 14,000 ft and a cruise speed at 75% power of 317 km/h (171 knots) at 12,000 ft. It can achieve a maximum rate of climb of 5.2 m/s (1,029 ft/min) and has a certified service ceiling of 6,096 m (20,000 ft). The aircraft's maximum range, including the auxiliary tank, is approximately 2,376 km (1,283 nautical miles).
Fuel Consumption
At a cruise speed of 60% power, the DA62 consumes 44.7 liters per hour (11.8 US gallons per hour). At maximum endurance speed, fuel consumption can drop to as low as 9 gallons per hour. The aircraft's fuel efficiency is a significant advantage for both private and commercial operations.
Takeoff and Landing Performance
The takeoff distance at sea level is 883 m (2,897 ft), while the landing distance is 779 m (2,556 ft). The maximum demonstrated crosswind component is 46 km/h (25 knots), which is important for pilots to consider during operations in varying weather conditions.
Safety notes
- Specifications are approximate and may change without notice.
- Ensure to consider additional fuel consumption for taxi, takeoff, climb, descend, or reserve when calculating range.

DA62 THE ULTIMATE FLYING MACHINE Useful Load 710 kg or 1,565 lbs Consumption at 60% 44.7 lt/h or 11.8 gal/h Max. Speed 356 km/h or 192 kts Max. Altitude 6,096 m or 20,000 ft Page 3 TRAVEL THE 21 ST CENTURY WAY „Standing out on the ramp at Diamond’s base at Wiener Neustadt in Austria, the DA62 looks exactly what it is – a 21st Century aircraft.“ www.pilotweb.aero MORE OF THE BEST The all new DA62 fills the gap between high performance single pistons and entry level turboprops. With a spacious cabin, offe- ring optional three row seven passenger seating, excellent pay- load and exceptionally low fuel burn, the DA62 is best described as a flying luxury SUV. The DA62 represents the ultimate development of Diamond’s pis- ton aircraft line, incorporating decades of experience in certified composite airplane construction, safety, jet fuel piston power- plants and advanced avionics integration. The DA62 will impress pilots looking for more seats and utility, as well as charter operators and corporate flight departments wanting to complement their larger aircraft with a low cost alter- native for shorter trips. AT A GLANCE: ▪ 7 seats, three-row seating ▪ Excellent cabin access ▪ Luxurious leather interior ▪ G1000 NXi, GFC700 3-axis & yaw damper ▪ Twin 180hp jet fuel AE330 engines ▪ High fuel efficiency ▪ Superb per- formance in all phases of flight ▪ TKS known ice protection (FIKI) DA62 KEYFACTS: Page 5 SPACIOUS LUXURY MEETS HIGH TECH SPACIOUS INTERIOR DESIGN The DA62 spoils pilots and passengers alike, with an extra-large cabin, generous and adjustable front seats, a 60/40 split folding three seat second row bench and optional folding two seat third row bench. Comfortable access for all on board is assured through the two forward gull wing doors and the huge rear door that provides access to all rear seats. Baggage is stowed in the generous nose compartments and cabin, offering maximum loading flexibility for any mission. “Even at a glance you can see that the standard of finish is extremely high, while the elegant, flowing lines are extremely attractive. ” www.pilotweb.de FIRST CLASS CABIN Luxury features abound throughout, including premium interiors in several styles, colors and materials, all LED interior lighting, optional electric air conditioning and more. CARBON DESIGN The sleek all carbon composite airframe incorporates advanced aerodynamics with the latest in passive safety technology for high performance, great efficiency and superior occupant protec- tion. The composite airframe is durable, easily maintained and will keep looking great for many years to come. Page 7 ADVANCED AVIONICS Page 9 ADVANCED AVIONICS TOP-NOTCH AVIONICS The fully integrated Garmin G1000NXi flight deck with stan- dard 3-axis GFC700 Automated Flight Control System and yaw damper and Electronic Stability and Protection, is complemented by a long list of avionics options to perfectly suit your mission. Integrated weather radar, normally available only on much more expensive aircraft, is available as are Traffic Alerting, Synthetic Vision, and much more. The Line Replaceable Units (LRU’s) are located in a dedicated and externally accessible forward avionics bay, for ease of maintenance and trouble shooting. EASY PROGRAMMING The Garmin GCU 476 alphanumeric keypad is an available option in the DA62. It makes programming the G1000 NXi easier than ever! „The Diamond DA62 is a per- fect platform for our use. We fly 300-400 hrs a year - to short grass airstrip like Manchester Barton and Wickenby which is only 520m and to major inter- national airport like Luton and London Stansted Airport. The benefit of this is the airplane’s capability of high speed on the approach, no slowing down the commercial traffic behind us. The landing is as easy as it can be with its trailing link undercarriage and larger tyres and feathering props. It’s a superb aircraft for private or commercial for either day or night VFR or IFR.“ Steven Viner, Chief Pilot, Morson International, UK Page 11 JET-FUEL POWER The turbocharged Austro AE330 jet fuel piston engines perfectly match the DA62’s aerodynamically efficient airframe, burning only 17.1 gph, combined, at a high speed cruise of 192 ktas, and little as 9 gph at max endurance speed. PROPULSION CONTROL Control is jet-engine simple, with each engine / propeller combination controlled by a single power lever and power settings displayed in % power. Simplified power control means that you can focus on more important things – and that is not just more convenient, but safer too. PROPELLERS The 3 blade MT hydraulic constant speed propellers feature advanced blade geometry for efficient performance, smoothness and low noise. They are automatically controlled by each engine’s digital engine control through conventional hydraulic governors. Feathering is as simple as flipping a single switch. „A case can be made that the twin-diesel DA62 from Aust- ria’s Diamond Aircraft repre- sents a new pinnacle in piston aircraft design. Its long list of positive attributes includes superb efficiency, quality cons- truction, technological sophi- stication and aesthetic appeal from every angle. With so much going for it, there’s little question this is an airplane that belongs on the shortlist of the greatest light twins ever. In a word, it’s a winner.“ www.flyingmag.com SALES UNITS DA62 in global operation (Year 2016-2019) WORLDWIDE 130+ UNITS The DA62 moves more passengers and equipment further and faster than anything else in its class, with exceptional fuel efficiency, luxury and twin-engine security.
