Die Citation XLS+ aktualisierte bei ihrer Zulassung im Mai 2008 die 560XL mit einer längeren Nase, FADEC-geregelten Pratt-&-Whitney-Canada-PW545C-Triebwerken und einem Collins-Pro-Line-21-Cockpit. Sie bietet Platz für bis zu neun Passagiere in einer Kabine mit Stehhöhe, fliegt 1.858 nm mit NBAA-IFR-Reserven und blieb in Produktion, bis die XLS Gen2 sie ablöste.
