Evoy has extended its worldwide presence partnering with seven new dealers as the Norwegian electric outboard manufacturer sees demand for electric boating grow.
Evoy says it is seeing demand for cleaner boating solutions in both the commercial and leisure boat market segments.
“Our new partners help us tap into the increased interest in electric boats, and to showcase viable and scalable electric motor systems to the market,” said Mads Roland–Glimsholt, Evoy business development manager.
“With the Evoy dealership network steadily growing, potential customers can test-drive and experience new technology in person before purchasing.”
Evoy’s newly signed dealers serving the commercial and leisure segments are Marine Lifestyles serving Australia and New Zealand, Passionautica in Poland, Powerboat & Yacht Management which serves the UK, Lake Geneva in Switzerland and the Southern France.
“We aim to be the leading supplier of electric powered marine products in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region,’ says Stephen Hennessy, Marine Lifestyles MD. “Our Hysucat Electrofoil vessels offer breathtaking performance and efficiency and are the ideal platform for Evoy’s electric motor systems.”
These new dealers will join established Evoy distributor The Green Wave, a Netherlands-based dealer that serves Benelux in both commercial and leisure target market groups.
Commercial customers
Evoy dealers Grondin Marine in Western France, Sjótækni in Iceland, and Luxmeter in Chile will serve commercial customers, primarily aquaculture, and shellfish farming companies.
“We believe Evoy has developed the products to play a key role in the transition to a zero-emission boating industry in France,” says Jérôme Beilvert, CEO of Grondin Marine.
Hungarian based Hanse Hungaria will exclusively serve the premium boat market in this region. The dealership is near Lake Balaton, the largest lake in Central Europe, which has banned boats with combustion engines.
‘We have a very special market near Lake Balaton. We wanted to step into the electric propulsion market, and we were taking our time researching the best solution,’ explained Peter Lindwurm of BLP Group.
“Our customers want high-end products, and with Evoy, this is something we can offer. We are very happy to be onboard.”
Marte Rostrup Hofset, Evoy chief commercial officer, concluded: “Our new dealers and their diverse focus areas demonstrate the strong appeal of electric propulsion across multiple market segments.”
