Williams Jet Tenders unveils electric EvoJet
Williams Jet Tenders, a leader in jet-powered luxury tenders, has unveiled the all-new electric EvoJet, an evolution of its EvoJet 70 model. The new EvoJet 70E combines the luxury features of its predecessor, which was launched in 2019, with zero-emission propulsion, reinforcing the company’s commitment to sustainability in the marine industry.
The electric EvoJet 70E retains premium features of the EvoJet 70 including carbon fibre T-Top, ski pole, ample storage, premium audio system, single-point lift, LED deck lights, while introducing zero-emission electric propulsion powered by a 58.5kWh lithium-ion battery. The tender can reach a claimed top speed of 40mph and can accommodate up to 13 passengers.
According to Williams Jet Tenders, the new EvoJet 70E charges fully in one hour using a fast charger, delivering 56 minutes of operation on a typical cycle.
“We are incredibly excited to introduce the electric EvoJet to the market as a technology demonstrator,” says Mathew Hornsby, commercial director of Williams Jet Tenders. “We continue to thoroughly test this model to ensure it meets our exacting standards but are pleased to showcase what’s possible with the technology at Cannes and Monaco Yacht Show. We look forward to discussing yacht integration opportunities with OEMs, as well as the future of electric boats in the marine industry.”
The EvoJet 70E is equipped with a Garmin-screen electric system from EVOA, an American company partnered Yasa Motors (a Mercedes subsidiary), and a 58.5kWh lithium-ion battery bank supplied by Williams Advanced Engineering.
The custom multifunction display from Garmin offers real-time insights into battery range, temperature, and charge status, ensuring those at the helm have complete control and confidence.
The electric EvoJet features a distinctive blue design along the top flash of the tubes, setting it apart from the traditional EvoJet.
Williams Jet Tenders says it welcomes enquiries from technology partners and OEMs interested in collaborating on the future of electric tenders.
