The next X, due next year if I am not mistaken is going to have A/T, and a 15" fuselage plug, better range and supposedly better speed, supposedly to be a Garmin bird. One of my principals briefly looked at it but quickly discounted it due to range, the new X is only going to get an extra 100Nm or so, so winter Westbound across the pond is not always possible non stop.
Edit:
Birefly looked at the Cessna website and it looks like the new bird is out already. Can't confirm if she now has A/T's though. according to Cessna: 250Nm better range and 5 minutes quicker to 450, 5knots increase in TAS
