I don't see any economic advantage to adding a twin to their product
line. Their singles already offer "twin-like" speeds without the expense
of the second engine and systems. I don't see any evidence that there is
demand for a new piston twin.

The purpose of a twin is load capacity.

The development and certification costs alone would require that the
selling price be in the VLJ range.

And the maintenance $$ on those is a lot higher.
