Frauscher x Porsche Electric Boats at boot Düsseldorf 2026: The 790 Spectre Sets New Standards in Luxury Electric Performance

This year we left boot Düsseldorf with a clear feeling: sustainable boating is accelerating fast, with more electric and low-impact solutions on display than ever.

We discovered many exciting projects at the show, but one of the highlights that truly won us over was the Frauscher x Porsche collaboration, a blend of engineering, design and performance that sets a new benchmark for high-end electric boating.

For us, it proves that sustainability does not contradict design or elegance; when it is done right, it actually elevates the on-board experience.

The Frauscher x Porsche 790 Spectre: A Fully Electric Sports Boat Built from Scratch

At boot Düsseldorf 2026, Frauscher & Porsche unveiled the Frauscher x Porsche 790 Spectre, a fully electric sports boat built from scratch using the same electric drive system as the new Macan Turbo. They presented the boat together with the Macan Turbo Concept Lago, which showcases the car side of this electric technology on land.

Measuring 7.97 metres in length, the 790 Spectre combines Porsche's high-performance electric drive technology with a newly developed lightweight hull, Porsche-design DNA and extensive customisation options. The boat is already available to order as a new benchmark in electric performance, design and individuality on the water.

Porsche Electric Technology Meets Lightweight Marine Engineering

The 790 Spectre's propulsion system is powered by Porsche's proven electric drive technology, delivering exceptional acceleration, efficiency and refined handling. The newly developed lightweight hull ensures optimal energy efficiency while maintaining structural integrity and seaworthiness.

Porsche's design language is immediately recognizable in the boat's sleek lines, aerodynamic profile and attention to detail. The extensive customisation options allow owners to tailor their 790 Spectre to their personal style, making each unit unique.

Macan Turbo Concept Lago and Frauscher x Porsche 850 Fantom

You will also see the Macan Turbo Concept Lago and another Frauscher x Porsche project, the Frauscher x Porsche 850 Fantom, presented at last year's edition of boot.

The 850 Fantom showcases the continuity of this collaboration and demonstrates how automotive excellence can seamlessly translate to the marine world. Together, these projects illustrate a holistic vision of electric mobility on land and water.

Why This Matters for the Electric Boat Market

The Frauscher x Porsche partnership is more than just a premium product launch, it signals a broader trend in the marine industry: collaboration between automotive and marine sectors to accelerate electric and hybrid innovation.

As leading automotive brands bring their engineering expertise, battery technology and design excellence to the water, we're seeing faster development cycles, improved performance and increased consumer confidence in electric boats.

For brands, shipyards and component manufacturers in the electric and hybrid marine space, this is a pivotal moment. The market is expanding, and partnerships like Frauscher x Porsche demonstrate the commercial viability and desirability of high-performance sustainable vessels.
