"Our boat basically uses 80% less energy than a traditional speedboat would, and the mission really is to help accelerate the transition to fossil fuel free waterways." After the successful launch of its first electric hydrofoil boat, the limited series Candela C-7, in 2019, Candelas 50-strong team. Designed for mass production, the new C-8 glides above the water at incredible speeds, all. "It basically is a boat that flies above the waves," Veronica Cargay, a project manager for Candela Marine Tech, told ABC7 News. Swedish outfit Candela has just announced the launch of its new electric hydrofoil boat Candela C-8. California startup Navier tried to outdo its Scandinavian rival by bringing an electric hydrofoil that’s a little bit longer, though Candela is further along in getting its. The C-8 is a 28-foot pleasure boat that has a few neat tricks. But the moment we hit the water, we realized part of what makes the electric boat we rode around on Tuesday so different. Swedish company Candela on Thursday unveiled a 28-foot (8.5-meter) electric-powered hydrofoil speedboat that can cruise for over two hours at 20 knots, or about 23 mph. Now Candela’s investment is paying off as early sales figures show that the C-8 is handily outselling its gas-powered competition. (KGO) - At first glance, it blended in with the hundreds of other boats docked in Sausalito. I am therefore very happy about the C-8 Polestar edition and our collaboration with the brilliant team at Polestar,” adds Gustav Hasselskog, CEO & founder Candela.Sweden-based boat company Candela is working to bring electric ferries to the San Francisco Bay Area. At Candela, our primary focus is to create vessels that are more compelling in every respect. “Aesthetic excellence is an intrinsic value, but it can also serve as a powerful driving force towards a sustainable future. Like the first time driving an electric car, you instantly feel that this is the future when the boat ‘takes off’ – and now with the special gold details that we so proudly exhibit on our cars.” Maximilian Missoni, Head of Design at Polestar, says: “Candela’s hydrofoil technology is a paradigm shift for sustainable performance in the marine industry. In July, this two-seater, battery-electric craft competed (and came first) in the YCM International Speed Record race the world’s biggest competition for electric and new energy boats during the Monaco Energy Challenge. The Candela C-8 uses an efficient 75 kW electric direct drive pod motor– the Candela C-POD. Candela’s flagship product is its C-7 speedboat. This compares favourably with traditional powerboats and comes with a high-speed range 2-3 times longer than conventional electric speedboats. Starting from 2023, all Candela C-8 boats are powered by the 69-kWh battery and charging hardware from the standard-range Polestar 2 to realise a range of up to 57 nautical miles on one charge at a cruising speed of 22 knots. Previously, the two Swedish premium mobility brands reached an agreement for Polestar to supply batteries and charging technology to power Candela’s electric hydrofoil boats. Computer-controlled hydrofoils lift the hull above.
Candela P-8 is the world’s first electric hydrofoil water taxi to be serially produced. The P-8 lets you get up close and personal with the best nature can offer. It combines Polestar’s Scandinavian take on luxury EV design with Candela’s innovative electric hydrofoil boat. EQT AB ’s venture capital arm is taking a stake in Candela Speed Boat AB, a Swedish startup making electric boats that rely on hydrofoil technology. With one electric pod motor, the P-8 can cruise in almost complete silence, without disturbing marine wildlife or sound pollution. Now that day has come as the two Swedish.
Polestarand Candela have revealed the Candela C-8 Polestar edition. Candela and Polestar announced a partnership in August of last year that would see automotive-grade EV batteries hit the seas in long-range electric boats.
