The SLSA version of the 601XL built by AMD can be flown both IFR and VFR
day or night. It all depends on your ticket.
I took a look on their web site, and saw that they are using the Continental
O-200, which appears to be consistant with what I supposed.

The certificated version of the O-200, and a certificated Sensenich
composite prop, and TSO'd instruments and avionics. There are only two LSAs
(well, the other one's actually a family of closely related aircraft) that
meet those requirements, the other one being the Tecnam Bravo/Sierra.
There's at least one LSA manufacturer that claims LSAs can't be legally
flown IFR, but I strongly suspect that's because they don't offer one.
