Frauscher x Porsche 850 Fantom Air

Porsche has adapted and perfected its propulsion technology designed for road vehicles so that it can be used in water.

The Frauscher x Porsche 850 Fantom Air uses components from the Premium Electric Platform (PPE) on which the new Macan is based.

This includes a state-of-the-art permanent magnet synchronous (PSM) electric motor, whose maximum power in the eFantom has been limited to 544 horsepower (400 kW), in addition to the associated power electronics.

A shaft transmits the power from the electric motor to the characteristic marine Z transmission.

The propeller is located at the rear of the boat, while the controls are housed in a waterproof box with the Porsche logo.

The lithium-ion battery with a gross capacity of 100 kWh, also adopted from the Macan, is also located under the aft area.

For the suspension on the supporting frame, Porsche experts opted for cable mounts, which are especially good at absorbing the shocks that inevitably occur when sailing fast or in waves.

The Frauscher x Porsche eFantom glides comfortably on the water despite its sporty feel.
