X Shore has signed its largest order to date with M Yachts, to deliver 32 of its electric boats to the DACH region with completion expected by the end of next year.
The boats, featuring a mix of X Shore’s latest designs, will be shown in M Yachts’ showrooms across the region which consists of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, reinforcing X Shore’s presence in
The German boating market is projected to reach an electrification rate of around 12% by 2027, according to research by Arthur D. Little commissioned by X Shore.
The growth is fuelled by internal combustion engine (ICE) bans on several lakes, high environmental awareness, and Germany’s adoption of electric vehicles.
The Swiss and Austrian markets are also following suit, with ICE bans on lakes driving demand for alternatives.
“The DACH region is a crucial market for X Shore, sharing our deep connection to the water and commitment to sustainable boating,” said X Shore CEO René Hansen.
X Shore boats are superb results of engineering and design and we’re overjoyed to soon showcase them across our sites in the DACH region.
