Quoting from wikipedia :
"Citation Ten
In 2010, Cessna initiated a major update of the aircraft, the Citation Ten, which includes upgraded AE3007C2 engines with new fans, Garmin G5000 flight displays with three 14 inch screens and a heads-up display. The elliptical winglets that were available as an aftermarket option on the Citation X will become standard, and a stretch of 38 cm will improve passenger comfort. Due to a 1.4% improvement in SFC and increased thrust, Cessna is advertising an increase in payload of 97 kg, an increase in cruise speed at FL490 from 460 to 479 knots, and a range increase of 190 nmi (352 km). First flight is expected in December 2011. After the aircraft passes certification testing, it will be the fastest civilian aircraft in the world. It is not known at this time whether or not a separate type rating will be required to pilot this aircraft."
