Revealed in 2012 at the Monaco Yacht show as just a concept, Mercedes-Benz’s Style department recently welcomed journalists from worldwide to the South of France to take a look at the finished model.
Carried out in collaboration with yacht producer Silver Arrows Marine, the resulting yacht, formally titled the Mercedes-Benz Arrow460-Granturismo, is genuinely one of a kind and includes all the trademarks of a Mercedes job. Just 10 examples are planned to be manufactured, limited to just one boat every nation.
Determining in at 14 meters (45.9 feet) long, the Granturismo is powered by twin Yanmar diesel motor, which include 480 horse power each, bringing the cruising accelerate to 30 knots and the top speed to 40+ knots. The interior, while not completed at the time of the yacht’s premiere, equates Mercedes’s model language to the ocean blue, making substantial usage of nubuck leather and eucalyptus wood paneling. The designers at Mercedes have stated that each yacht would be distinct to its owner, enabling for unlimited modification as long as it adheres to the design principles of both brands.
The boat is developed to accommodate as much as 10 individuals at a time. The big side windows are actually retractable and the windscreen can be raised, which suggests that travelers can sit comfortably in the interior while taking pleasure in an overall view and the feeling of sitting in the open. Beds and tables are extendable, and for that reason readily available as when needed. More facilities of the last model consist of a glamorous restroom system, separate dressing room, cooling system, high-quality audio system, a “wine-cellar,” and an ice-making device.
No comments have been made when it comes to pricing however early reports recommend a base level rate of $1.7 million.
