Development
Very little information has been made public about the aircraft since development began sometime in early 2005. Cessna has confirmed that the NGP has been designed specifically to other newer aircraft. Due to its intended role as competition for the Cirrus SR22, it is often referred to in the aviation press as the “Cirrus Killer.” 2003 Cirrus SR22 The SR22, by Cirrus Design, is a high-performance single-engine, four-seat, composite aircraft. ...
To be competitive with the Cirrus SR22, the NGP will likely have a cruise speed in the vicinity of 180 knots (343 km/h) TAS, a useful load around 1,150 lb (522 kg), and a base price around US$350,000. There is no information on the aircraft's runway length requirements at present. Time will tell where the Cessna NGP falls relative to all these parameters True airspeed (TAS) is the speed of an aircraft relative to the airmass in which it flies, i. ...
The NGP mock-up displayed at AOPA Air Expo 2006, in Palm Springs, California has five seats. The aircraft is powered by a Lycoming IO-580 FADEC 320 hp engine controlled by a single throttle lever. The aircraft has four doors with a separate baggage door on the left side, tricycle landing gear with a castering nose wheel and a forward-swept high-mounted wing of relatively small area. Lycoming Engines is a major aircraft engine company, known primarily for their smaller general aviation engines. ...

Cessna President and CEO, Jack Pelton confirmed at AirVenture 2006 that the NGP is intended to be the first of a new family of Cessna singles that will, in the long term, replace the Cessna 172 and 182 in production. Pelton also confirmed that while the prototype is flying with a Lycoming powerplant, Cessna is examining alternative new technology engines as well.
