Why the Piaggio Avanti EVO will be the Fastest Turboprop in 2026

Why the Piaggio Avanti EVO will be the Fastest Turboprop in 2026 A plane that looks like it's flying backwards. Two propellers pushing from behind, a stubby wing sticking out of its nose, and a shape that makes pilots do a double take on the runway. The Piaggio Avanti EVO doesn't look fast. It looks wrong. And yet, for years, this strange little Italian aircraft has quietly out-run planes that cost three times as much. So how does a company nobody's heard of build the fastest propeller plane on record, then almost go bankrupt twice, then get rescued by a drone manufacturer from Turkey? Stick around, because the next chapter for this plane might be its biggest yet.
