This was the second trip for me in our new 2000 Easy LX. I have 2;000 hours in the 2000 Classic but the LX has a totally different avionics package and 2;000 LBS more thrust. You can not engage the Flight Director; autopilot; and autothrottles until reaching 400 FT. We departed RW 24 flying the TEB RUUDY 4 departure. At 400 FT I pulled the power levers back and had the Co-Captain engage the 'automation'. For some reason the autopilot and autothrottles did not engage and before I realized it we were close to being 300 FT high at WENTZ. I got the altitude back to 1;500 FT just as we were at crossing WENTZ and then saw the airspeed was at 280 KTS. I pulled the power back; way back; and then got everything back under control. Contributing factors were: Low time in a new airplane; not totally familiar with new avionics package; and not used to having to pull the power levers back so far to accomplish the same speed adjustments as our old airplane.
A DA2000 EASy EX autopilot failed to capture 1;500 FT on the TEB Runway 24 RUUDY 4. Because of unfamiliarity with the aircraft the Captain leveled high; then recovered to 1;500 FT; but exceeded 280 KTS because of increased engine power.
