Candela

Swedish electric foiling innovator Candela has revealed that its P-12 ferry is heading to the US for the first time. Thanks to a partnership with Fly Tahoe, the craft will drastically cut travel times for tourists heading to Lake Tahoe's ski resorts.

We've been following the progress of the ambitious Neom project since its announcement in 2017, which includes a 105-mile-long, 660-ft-wide and 1,600-ft-tall megacity called The Line. Now we know how some of its tourists and residents will get around.

Swedish foiling e-boat maker Candela has announced the maiden flight of its P-12 passenger ferry, with its dual electric drives and tri-wing setup lifting the vessel above the water to reach a top speed of 30 knots. Series production has now begun.

Swedish e-boat maker Candela recently partnered with battery company Northvolt and charging station provider Plug for a long-distance challenge that saw the latest C-8 Polestar Powered prototype clock up 420 nautical miles over a 24-hour period.

It was just last year that we heard about the first "flight" of Candela's C-8 day-cruiser electric hydrofoil. The Swedish company has now announced a new version of the boat, in the popular center console layout.

Last year, luxury EV brand Polestar agreed to supply batteries to foiling e-boat maker Candela. Now the first fruit of that deal has been revealed, a new version of the C-8 leisure craft that's now good for a per-charge range of 57 nautical miles.

In an industry first, two Swedish e-mobility companies have partnered to bring electric boating into the mainstream. Luxury EV maker Polestar has agreed to supply batteries for future Candela commercial and leisure hydrofoiling electric boats.

Last year, Swedish electric boat maker Candela announced plans to launch a foiling passenger ferry called the P-30. Now in the final design phase, the craft has been renamed the P-12 Shuttle and will hit the water as a foiling catamaran.

It was just this February that we heard about the first "flight" of Candela's C-8 electric hydrofoil. Now, the Swedish company has announced its latest model, the better-appointed P-8 Voyager.

Candela aims to smash electric boat range records with its C-8, using a hydrofoil system that eliminates as much as 80 percent of the drag you'd get from a conventional design. The first prototype C-8 has now flown, and Candela has released video.

Candela has applied its expertise in low-drag nautical engineering to build a bigger and better version of its hydrofoiling watercraft. Dubbed the C-8, it's claimed to have the longest range of any electric boat in history.

Batteries are taking ages to improve, but Sweden's Candela isn't waiting around. Instead, it's built a low-drag hydrofoiling boat that barely touches the water, giving it a super-smooth, efficient ride and three times the range of other electric boats.
