Elegance meets performance: Pininfarina and Elan yatchs showcase their latest creations at the Venice boat show
Set to take place at the historic Arsenale of Venice from May 31st to June 4th, this event promises to be a spectacular celebration of the nautical world. For the occasion, Pininfarina will be joining forces with Elan Yachts to present their latest creations.
Collaborating with Elan Yachts, Pininfarina has co- designed two exceptional yachts, both on display
in Venice, that epitomize luxury, family sailing, and performance cruising. The first creation to be presented is the Impression 43, a new family cruiser that embodies elegance and comfort. This modern 43-footer boasts a sleek design, a spacious interior, and top-notch craftsmanship. Collaborating with Pininfarina on the styling, Elan Yachts has created an ergonomic and visually stunning environment. The yacht’s naval architecture, skillfully developed by Humphreys Yacht Design, ensures excellent performance in various conditions, making it ideal for short-handed sailing.
Joining the Impression 43 is the Elan E6, an award- winning performance cruiser that sets new standards in its class. As the flagship of Elan’s E-Line, this 47-foot-long creation is one of the lightest, fully fitted performance cruisers on the market. Incorporating cutting-edge 3D vacuum infusion lamination technology and an innovative laminate plan, the E6 delivers exceptional speed and efficiency. Pininfarina’s exquisite design perfectly complements the yacht’s aggressive yet elegant styling, while Humphreys Yacht Design has optimized its naval architecture for unmatched performance.
The Elan E6 has already garnered significant recognition, having received the prestigious Design of the Year 2022 award in Slovenia and nominations for Performance Yacht of the Year at the 2022 British Yachting Awards and European Yacht of the Year in the Performance Cruiser category. Additionally, it has claimed The International Yacht and Aviation award and the Red Dot: Product Design 2022 award.
Pininfarina, recognized for its remarkable contributions to various industries, including automotive, architecture and industrial design, has expanded its presence in the nautical sector since the Eighties. To reaffirm its commitment in this sector, Pininfarina recently inaugurated with De Simoni Yacht Design its design boutique by the sea in the heart of Porto Lotti in La Spezia.
