With shipping manufacturers banking more on comfort and luxury, green or eco-friendly aspects have often been put at the bay for style and opulence to attract more and more buyers. Combining luxury with sustainability, Swiss company Code X has come up with a stylish yacht, that generating power from lithium batteries can either cruise at a brisk 80 knots by twin Ilmor F1 engines, with a bulky 710hp a piece, or at a more leisurely 9 knots by the twin electric motors, depending on your mood and requirements. Additionally, the Code X Yacht includes the catamaran’s on-board solar panels to power it for an unlimited period, in case the lithium batteries run down and stop working. Moreover, the luxury yacht incorporates touchscreen control and a GPS-controlled “virtual anchor” system, making use of the electric motors to maintain a stationary position, no matter in what direction wind or currents are flowing. Finally, we have a luxurious cruiser, both environmentally and in comfort, that promises a lavish cruise in a true sense.
