Axopar Just Unveiled Two Electric Boats Capable of Reaching Thrilling Speeds
After a decade of producing adventure boats, Axopar is entering electrifying new territory.
The popular Finnish builder, which has sold over 6,000 vessels worldwide in the past 10 years, just launched a new sub-brand called AX/E that will specialize in high-performance electric runabouts.
The two inaugural models—christened the AX/E 22 and AX/E 25, respectively—combine Axopar’s signature elegant styling and high-quality craftsmanship with cutting-edge electric propulsion to provide seafarers with a luxurious, emission-free boating experience.
“We wanted to create something that is truly electrifying, with boats that excite and inspire, but also protect the environments we explore,” Jarkko Jämsén, Axopar’s head designer, said in a statement. “AX/E reflects Axopar’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible on the water.”

The 22-foot AX/E 22 is powered by a 63 kW battery and an Evoy Outboard Breeze motor that can produce over 120 hp for a top speed of 36 knots and a range of more than 50 nautical miles at slow speeds. The larger, 25-foot AX/E 25 packs a 126 kWh battery and a more powerful Evoy Outboard Storm motor capable of churning out over 300 horses for a max speed of over 50 knots and a range of up to 60 nautical miles at slow speeds. Axopar adds that each boat also offers “unparalleled torque, whisper-quiet operation, and zero emissions.” Fast charging tech ensures minimal downtime between adventures, too.
The AX/E 25. Niklas FrankThe AX/E fleet isn’t bad to look at, either. The first two models showcase premium eco-friendly materials, powder-painted profiles, stylish upholstery, and neutral palettes, resulting in a refined, timeless aesthetic that is sure to appeal to discerning yachters. Each boat also has modular features that enable personalized configurations. Both can accommodate six passengers, but the 25 also has a front cabin that can sleep two guests.
Want to check them out in person? The AX/E 22 and AX/E 25 will be displayed at Cannes from September 10 to 15. The 25 has a recommended retail price of €234,000 (about $259,000), while the 22 has a recommended retail price of €133,500 (roughly $147,000).
