The 2002 Cessna Citation Excel is a remarkable midsize business jet from Cessna, expertly designed to deliver a perfect blend of performance and comfort. With seating for up to 9 passengers, this aircraft provides a generous baggage capacity of 79 cubic feet, ensuring ample space for personal belongings. The Citation Excel excels in its performance capabilities, featuring a maximum cruise speed of 433 knots and a long-range cruise speed of 373 knots. Known for its impressive climb rate of 3,790 ft/min (according to Conklin & de Decker), the Excel achieves a range of approximately 1,839 nautical miles, making it suitable for both short and medium-haul journeys.
Powered by Pratt & Whitney PW545A engines, the Excel not only offers speed but also operates with remarkable fuel efficiency. This aircraft is a derivative of the Citation V Ultra, incorporating a shortened Citation X stand-up fuselage and a lengthened Citation V wing, which enhance its aerodynamic profile. These improvements enable the Citation Excel to achieve a higher maximum gross takeoff weight (MGTOW) and longer range compared to the V Ultra.
As of November 2021, 96% of Citation Excel aircraft were purchased pre-owned by their current owners, while only 4% were new. About 5.6% of these jets are currently for sale, with a majority (55%) under exclusive broker agreements. When listed, a Citation Excel typically remains on the market for an average of 144 days. With its combination of operational efficiency, passenger comfort, and proven reliability, the Citation Excel continues to be a popular choice in the world of business aviation.
