Would you buy a motorboat made by Mercedes? At the Miami International Boat Show today, the luxury car brand showed off a new toy, A 38ft bright yellow Motorboat. The boat, which is being called the “world’s most powerful electric drive powerboat”, hits speeds well over 100mph, powered by four, 60KWH lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. The total of 240KWH between the 4 batteries means alot of power out on the open water. The concept of the boat is taken directly from the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-cell car, the all electric ride. Read more about the boat after the jump.
