Cessna Citation M2 vs Dassault Falcon 900lx vs Embraer Phenom 100ev vs Pilatus Pc 24

The Cessna Citation M2 and Embraer Phenom 100EV are both very light jets aimed at short-to-medium missions, typically seating about four to six passengers in standard comfort (with higher maximum seat counts possible in tight layouts). In range, the Phenom 100EV generally reaches a bit farther than the M2, but both are best suited to regional trips rather than transcontinental flying. The Pilatus PC-24 sits a class above as a light jet with a more versatile mission: it typically carries about six to eight passengers and offers notably more cabin space and payload flexibility. Its range is substantially greater than the M2/Phenom class, making longer city pairs practical, and it is also known for strong short/rough-field capability compared with typical business jets. The Dassault Falcon 900LX is in a different category entirely: a large-cabin, long-range trijet designed for intercontinental missions. It commonly carries eight to fourteen passengers and offers far greater range than the other three, along with a much larger cabin and higher long-haul comfort.
