About the Cessna R172 Hawk XP
The Cessna R172 Hawk XP is the high-performance 172 — a fuel-injected 195-hp Continental IO-360 variant that climbs and cruises noticeably better than the standard Lycoming-powered Skyhawk. The extra power makes it a stronger short-field, float and high-density-altitude performer while keeping the 172's forgiving handling. The trade-off is a thirstier engine and a smaller used fleet than the standard 172, so the buy case is wanting 172 manners with more muscle — not the cheapest hours.
Produced 1977–1983.
