New ILIAD 53F OffGrid Hybrid Model Heralds Eco Revolution
We’re proud to announce the official launch of the groundbreaking ILIAD 53F OffGrid Hybrid, marking a bold new era in sustainable, luxury cruising. This revolutionary model combines the award-winning design of the ILIAD 53F with cutting-edge e-Motion hybrid technology to deliver silent, emission-reducing performance without compromising comfort or capability. With the first model recently ordered for delivery to Europe, the OffGrid Hybrid version elevates the series to an entirely new level.
Equipped with a parallel diesel-electric propulsion system, powerful Volvo 480hp D6 engines and high-capacity lithium-ion batteries, the ILIAD 53F OffGrid Hybrid offers autonomous cruising with zero-emission electric mode, reduced fuel use and ultra-quiet operation. Its extended carbon-fibre roofline features a solar array of over 7kw that powers all onboard systems—including air conditioning— for over 24 hours without a genset, with fast recharging and dramatically lower engine hours for long-term efficiency and cost savings.
While introducing this pioneering technology, the model retains the luxury, volume and performance that define the ILIAD brand, including a full-beam master suite, expansive flybridge and superior bridgedeck clearance for commanding offshore passages.
Be among the first to experience the future of luxury cruising—where innovation meets independence. Contact our team today for more information on the ILIAD 53F OffGrid Hybrid and discover how this remarkable model lets you go even further, cleaner and in absolute comfort.

E-Motion Hybrid Technology Available Across the Range
ILIAD Catamarans has launched its advanced e-Motion Hybrid technology across our entire fleet. This parallel hybrid system marks a bold step into sustainable, near-silent cruising—offering owners seamless transition between diesel and electric propulsion. Whether gliding silently through remote anchorages or crossing oceans to remote destinations, the e-Motion system delivers exceptional autonomy, fuel efficiency and environmental responsibility.
Each hybrid ILIAD features cutting-edge components, including lithium-ion batteries, e-Motion electric motors, isolation transformers and intuitive PMS touchscreen software. Backed by RINA-type approval, the system powers all house loads—including air conditioning—for over 24 hours on battery power alone. A generous solar array supports off-grid capability, and rapid recharging in just 30 minutes means greater flexibility and convenience without the need for a traditional generator.
The benefits go far beyond sustainability. Owners enjoy up to 75% fewer engine hours in a typical cruising season, significantly reducing servicing needs, fuel costs and noise pollution. With the ability to switch modes at the touch of a button, extended range and whisper-quiet operation, e-Motion redefines the standard for luxury cruising—offering a smarter, cleaner, and more tranquil yachting experience.

Expertly crafted for serious voyaging, the ILIAD 62 offers remarkable range, exceptional fuel efficiency and an unmatched level of onboard luxury, making her the ideal choice for extended exploration.
This latest ILIAD 62 has been fully customised to reflect her owners’ personal style and cruising requirements, resulting in a truly breathtaking yacht that blends performance with bespoke elegance.
