The Cessna Citation X+ is the final evolution of the Citation X family, produced between 2014 and 2018 in the super-midsize category. It combines a range of 3,460 nm, a cruise speed of 527 kt, and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft, a combination that shortens flight time on long legs and allows operating above most commercial traffic. The cabin seats 8 passengers in the typical configuration and up to 12 in the maximum arrangement, with a maximum takeoff weight of 16,374 kg. Since it went out of production in 2018, those who buy or operate in Brazil depend on the used market, and the US$23 million list price of the new aircraft remains a reference in negotiation.

Starter feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

Differences between variants
History
- 2012First flight
- 2014 - Officially certified at Mach 0.935
In June 2014, the Citation X+ received FAA certification with an Mmo of Mach 0.935, an official civil record that remains intact. It gained 8 knots over the original Citation X and became the fastest production civil jet in aviation history.
- 2014FAA certification
- 2014First deliveries
- 2018 - Replaced by the Citation Longitude
Cessna pivoted strategy in 2018: the Longitude (super-midsize 3,500 nm, cabin 1.83 m high, Mach 0.84) succeeded the X+ in the portfolio, abandoning the speed race in favor of a larger cabin and lower operating cost. The market prioritized comfort over 30 fewer minutes of flight time.
Textron Aviation - 2018End of production
Brazil Fleet
The Cessna Citation X+ is a super-midsize jet for up to 12 passengers, with a Mach 0.935 maximum operating speed, built from 2014 to 2018. On 22 Oct 2026, the RAB-ANAC registry did not separate the X+ from the Citation X, both registered as model 750. The up-to-date RAB-ANAC registration count, summed across the variants of the Citation X family, is in the Brazil Fleet section of this page, and the breakdown by status is in the model's Analytics.
Cessna announced FAA type certification on 27 Jun 2014, with deliveries starting from then. In that release, the manufacturer presented the X+ as the world's fastest civil aircraft and listed a 51,000 ft ceiling, two Rolls-Royce AE3007C2 engines, winglets, a fuselage 15 inches longer than the Citation X's and Garmin G5000 avionics.
Out of production, the model can only be bought pre-owned. The pre-owned median and open listings, kept up to date, are in the price card and the For sale now card of this page.

Curiosities and highlights
Benefits
Garmin G5000 touchscreen replaced Honeywell Primus
First Garmin G5000 avionics in a large Cessna jet, 4 touchscreen displays, native SVS, GFC 700 autopilot, FANS-1/A, CPDLC. A huge leap in ergonomics vs. the Honeywell Primus 2000 of the original Citation X. Reduced piloting workload on long-range routes.
Winglets + lengthened fuselage
The addition of winglets reduced drag and extended range by ~150 nm (3,460 nm full pax). The fuselage lengthened by 38 cm allowed repositioned seats with more legroom. AE3007C2 with 4% more thrust improved hot/high.
Limitations
Only 24 units produced
The Citation X+ program produced only 24 units between 2014 and 2018; Cessna chose to discontinue it in favor of the Citation Longitude (a range super-midsize, not a speed one). The pre-owned fleet today is extremely rare and highly valued, with 2024 market prices between USD 11-18M.

Curiosities
Speed rivals civil cargo aircraft
Mach 0.935 cruise is faster than most modern commercial jets (787 cruise: Mach 0.85; A350: Mach 0.89).
Registrations in Brazil
6 operational aircraft owned by companies in the ANAC registry (RAB), across the Citation X family (2 variants). Each opens the profile with owner, operator, status and history.
