If I read this correctly, BasicMed now allows up to 7 seats (6 passengers) and 12,500 pounds. Section 828 in the link above.
(j) COVERED AIRCRAFT DEFINED.—In this section, the term ‘covered aircraft’ means an aircraft that ‘‘(1) is authorized under Federal law to carry not more than 7 occupants ‘‘(2) has a maximum certificated takeoff weight of not more than 12,500 pounds; and ‘‘(3) is not a transport category rotorcraft certified to airworthiness standards under part 29 of title 14, Code of Federal Regulations.’’.
