BMW and TYDE presented the electric racing yacht The OPEN.
Its design is inspired by the ICON series of marine “electric vehicles”, which BMW announced at the beginning of the year.
The new product has become one of the largest in its category. The length was 14.8 meters, width – 4.5 meters. It is equipped with two electric motors with a power of 100 kW each and a 400 kWh battery. There is no need to be afraid that the battery will run out, because solar panels are installed on the cover.


The maximum speed of the yacht reaches 30 knots (about 55 km/h), and the cruising speed is 25 knots (about 46 km/h). The cruising range here is 50 nautical miles (about 93 km).
OPEN received special hydrofoils, by reducing energy consumption and drag. With their help, the yacht moves through the water with a sliding effect.
Inside the yacht there is a single control station with a 32-inch 6K display with voice control, preventing collisions on the base II and the climate control system.
You can take up to eight people on board, but the interior cabin is designed for two passengers.
The OPEN is now open for pre-order. The first transformations are promised to be delivered in the fall of 2024. [Robb Report]
