Textron has stated it will introduce new versions of its Citation XLS+ and Citation M2 aircraft. This follows from announcing the King Air 260, King Air 360 and Citation CJ4 Gen2 aircraft in the past year.

 

Like the CJ4 Gen2, both new Citation versions are focused on interior updates and enhancing the experience of both pilots and passengers. The M2 Gen2 features extra legroom for the copilot and a more robust interior. The XLS Gen2 features roughly the same upgrades, and also allows for a more eco-friendly cabin to be installed, with more renewable materials.

 

The M2 Gen2 will be available from Q1 2022 on, while the XLS Gen2 will be available in Q2 2022.
