Aircraft Stats Based on FAA Registry

Some observations before we dive into different segments:

More than 90% of the roughly 220,000 civil aircraft registered in the United States are general aviation aircraft.
The No.1 Cessna and No.3 Beechcraft are both subsidiaries of Textron Aviation.
Cessna 172 and Piper PA-28 are the most popular aircraft for training, so no surprise that Cessna and Piper are the top 2. However the absolute numbers of both brands are decreasing.
Cirrus is climbing fast, with the help of the best selling SR22.

Twin Piston

Twin pistons are losing popularity, Cessna used to build quite a few different twin piston models (310 / 320 / 401 / 402 / 404 / 411, etc), now Cessna builds none; Cessna's sister company Beechcraft still offers Baron. Piper has 2 models: Seneca and Seminole, the latter one is mostly for training. Diamond Twin Star is a diesel twin, burning jet fuel instead of avgas.

Beechcraft Baron
Piper PA-34 Seneca
Piper PA-44 Seminole: for training
Diamond DA42 Twin Star: 168hp jet fuel engines from Austro Engine AE300

Reasons for the decline? New single pistons like Cirrus SR22 are more powerful and can climb and cruise similar to twins. More advanced twins are being replaced by turbine engines.

Gulfstream

https://www.gulfstream.com/en/

The names reflect the max ranges:

G800: 8,000 nm /14,816 km range the longest range of any currently announced business jet https://www.gulfstream.com/en/aircraft/gulfstream-g800/
G700: 7,500 nm
G650/G650ER
G600: 6,600 nm
G500: 5,300 nm
G400: 4,200 nm, the entry point into Gulfstream's large-cabin family.
G280: 3,600 nm

Notes:

G800 will have the same fuselage as the G650ER but borrows many of the elements designed for the G700. That included the cabin seats, cabinetry, and lighting, in addition to the aforementioned Symmetry flight deck, wing, tail, and Rolls engines. When the G800 eventually replaces the G650ER, all of Gulfstream’s large-cabin jets will have common flight decks—notably Honeywell Epic-based Symmetry avionics and BAE Systems active control sidesticks—that will make it easier for pilots to transition between these fly-by-wire aircraft.
the G400 through G600 will have a common pilot type rating; the G700 and G800 will also have a common pilot rating.
G400, G500, and G600 will share the same tail and fuselage cross-section but have slightly different variants of the Pratt & Whitney PW800-series engine. All three of these jets will be made at the Northwest manufacturing facility at Gulfstream’s Savannah campus. the exterior length of the G400 is about 10 feet shorter than its G500 sibling
G700 and G800 will share a wing, tail, and fuselage cross-section, in addition to the Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 turbofans, which are on track to receive FAA certification early next year. These ultra-long-range airplanes will be manufactured at the current G650ER production facility in Savannah; G650ER production is in the process of being moved a few doors down to the former G450/550 manufacturing facility.
