Sunreef Yachts joins Rosberg Xtreme Racing Team

Sunreef Yachts has joined the Rosberg Xtreme Racing Team as a partner. Recently inaugurated by sustainability entrepreneur and former Formula 1 World Champion, Nico Rosberg, the team will compete in the first season of the Extreme E racing series.

The Extreme E teams will put state-of-the art electric SUVs to the test in remote environments across the globe to draw attention to climate change and environmental damage.

Sunreef Yachts enters the race together with the Rosberg Xtreme Racing Team (RXR) on top of the company’s partnership with Nico Rosberg. As Sunreef Yachts Eco line ambassador, Nico Rosberg currently supports the shipyard in the field of sustainable yachting.

“We are more than excited about this partnership as it takes our sustainability action to a new dimension,” says Francis Lapp, Sunreef Yachts founder. “I believe the Sunreef Yachts Eco philosophy can cross oceans and continents and being a partner of the Rosberg Xtreme Racing gives us a unique chance to focus the world’s attention on pressing environmental issues.”

Sunreef Yachts Eco is a range of bespoke eco catamarans. The company says it represents a new philosophy of responsible boating, with craft featuring a proprietary solar power system, electric propulsion, cutting-edge batteries and eco build materials to offer a 360° sustainable cruising experience.
