Cessna Citation M2 series

Listing-based estimates for the 16 Citation M2s on Radar run from about $2.8M to $5.8M, with a middle estimate of $4M. They are rough estimates from public listings and market reports, not appraisals.

What moves the price of any one Citation M2: total time and engine time, engine program enrollment, damage history, avionics and equipment, and complete logbooks. Build year sets the baseline; a Citation M2 with high hours, an engine near overhaul or gaps in its records sells below it, and one with low time, recent inspections and full records above it.

Radar does not list aircraft for sale. It tracks all 279 US-registered Citation M2s by tail number, each with its registration record and a value estimate, so you can check a listing against the value of its build year and look up the aircraft's own history before you call.

279 Citation M2s are on the US civil aircraft register (FAA file of October 2026), built 2008 to 2026. Aircraft registered in other countries are not counted. Radar has a page for each US registration.

As published for the Citation M2 Gen2: up to 6 passengers, a range of 1,550 nm (1,784 statute miles), a high-speed cruise of 404 ktas (465 mph), a ceiling of 41,000 ft, a cabin 4 ft 9 in high, 4 ft 10 in wide and 2 × Williams International FJ44-1AP engines. A given aircraft varies with its completion, weight and modifications.

The Citation M2's published range is 1,550 nautical miles (1,784 statute miles), with maximum range as Textron publishes it for the M2 Gen2 (condition not stated). Winds, payload, cruise speed and the reserves a flight carries change what a given trip can do.

Not nonstop between New York and London: that is about 2,986 nm, against a published range of 1,550 nm. Aircraft with less range than the crossing make it in legs, with fuel stops in Canada, Greenland and Iceland.

Not nonstop. Los Angeles to Honolulu is about 2,217 nm over open water, more than the Citation M2's published range of 1,550 nm.

The Citation M2 cruises at up to 404 knots true airspeed (about 465 mph), and its maximum operating Mach number is 0.71, as published for the Citation M2 Gen2.

The Citation M2 is certified to 41,000 feet for the Citation M2 Gen2. Heavy aircraft climb there in steps as they burn fuel.

Up to 6 passengers, the most the type is published for (Citation M2 Gen2). Many aircraft are completed with fewer, larger seats, so a given Citation M2 may seat fewer.
