Tesla E-Vision GT Concept Boat - Pure Marine Experience
The Tesla boat, officially the E-Vision GT Concept, is a fully electric luxury speedboat imagined by Moroccan designer Belkharmoudi Aziz. Powered by two Tesla Model S P100D motors producing a combined 1,800 hp, this 18 meter concept hits 40 knots in near silence, showing what a Tesla branded yacht could look like even though Tesla does not currently build boats.
Does Tesla make a boat?
No, Tesla does not currently produce a boat. The E-Vision GT is an independent design study, not an official Tesla product. We have seen numerous Tesla concepts thrown around the internet, like the T1 Concept we have covered before, but this is the first time we see a Tesla concept without wheels. It is a designer's vision of how the brand's electric philosophy could translate to the water.
How fast and powerful is the Tesla E-Vision GT?
Created by Moroccan designer Belkharmoudi Aziz, the boat is a futuristic take on what a Tesla boat could look like. Powered by two Model S P100D motors with a joint output of 1,800 hp, the 18 meter long boat is far from slow. It is capable of a top speed of 40 knots and a cruising speed of 30 knots, and we can only imagine how peaceful the water sounds at that pace without engine noise. By using CFRP composite reinforced with Kevlar, the hull keeps weight very low. As autoevolution notes, the design puts a clean conscience at the heart of luxury transport.
What about the interior and sustainability?
The interior is spacious and can accommodate up to 8 people surrounded by a posh wood veneer covered surface. To make the boat as sustainable as possible, the deck has built in solar panels that charge the vessel on the go. An electric boat makes a lot of sense: imagine a quiet ride at 40 knots in calm waters. As Carscoops put it, if Tesla made an electric motor yacht, it might look something like this. Elon Musk, we think you need to add this to your to do list.
