Proposed
- ATR 82 - During the mid-1980s, the company investigated a 78 seat derivative of the ATR 72. This would have been powered by two Allison AE2100 turboprops (turbofans were also studied for a time) and would have a cruising speed as high as 330kt. The ATR-82 project (as it was dubbed) was suspended when AI(R) was formed in early 1996.
- ATR stretch - In 2007, as a response to the Q400X proposal, ATR floated the idea of a 90-99 seater stretch. As of 2009, it was considered as part of the future -900 series ATR family.
- new 90-seat ATR - In 2011, a 90-seater proposal was planned to be brought to its shareholders for 2012. As of 2012, a new cleansheet design has been considered in the 90-seat segment, for a 2017 launch.
