Data as of April 13, 2026
The Citation M2 Gen2 market remains fundamentally tight, though recent weeks suggest early signs of softening in buyer urgency. While this segment continues to outperform much of the light jet market, near-term dynamics are beginning to shift.
Fleet Size and Availability
There are currently 9 aircraft for sale (2 off-market), representing 9.5% of the fleet.
Inventory remains relatively limited, though we have observed new aircraft entering the market over the past two weeks, which could begin to ease supply constraints if this trend continues. Off-market opportunities remain present but not dominant.
Market Listings
The current asking price range is $5,650,000 to $6,500,000.
Pricing remains firm and well-supported, reflecting the newer vintage, strong demand profile, and limited availability of this segment. Unlike legacy M2 aircraft, pricing dispersion is relatively narrow, with most aircraft clustering tightly around market expectations.
Sales Activity
Over the past six months, 16 aircraft have sold (3 off-market), with a sold range of $5,150,000 to $6,500,000.
Sales activity peaked in Q4 and moderated sharply into Q1, with transaction volume declining to minimal levels in recent months. Average days on market is 71 days, indicating that when transactions occur, they continue to move efficiently.
However, in the past two weeks, we have seen buyer activity slow modestly, with longer decision timelines emerging. This appears to be influenced in part by heightened geopolitical uncertainty, particularly in the Middle East, which is impacting overall buyer confidence.
Key Takeaways
• Inventory remains tight, but is beginning to build modestly
• Pricing is firm with minimal dispersion
• Sales activity has slowed following Q4 strength
• Buyer urgency has softened slightly in recent weeks
• External factors are beginning to influence market sentiment
Key Insight
The M2 Gen2 market remains one of the most supply-constrained segments, but recent increases in inventory combined with a pause in buyer urgency suggest a near-term shift toward balance. Even in a strong segment, timing and market conditions are beginning to matter more than they have over the past year.
