The Ferretti Group is set to make a splash at the upcoming boot Dusseldorf boat show with a fleet of six boats, including the world premiere of the Riva El-Iseo.
The fully electric runabout, which measures nearly 9m (30ft) in length, marks Riva's entry into the E-Luxury segment. After a successful test cycle, the official version is now ready for sale.
El-Iseo is an electric version of the Iseo and features a Parker GVM310 full electric engine. Maintaining a traditional stern-drive propulsion system, it achieves remarkable performance with a cruising speed of 25 knots and a top speed of 40 knots. The Parker GVM310 engine, delivering 250kW power and 300kW peak, ensures a unique blend of high performance and sustainability.
In terms of range, El-Iseo excels, offering up to ten hours of navigation in economy mode. It integrates a lithium battery pack with a capacity of 150kWh, configured in two independent blocks. The onboard systems, including transmission and throttles, are managed by Ferretti Group partner Xenta.
El-Iseo is a glorious new chapter in the challenge that only Riva can experience every day, that of combining its legendary history with cutting-edge technology to generate beauty and style that will never go out of fashion."
