Honda Marine continues to outdo itself in terms of performance and design. Each new model is increasingly efficient, fast, and visually striking—proof of the ongoing commitment that the leader of the outboard market dedicates not only to propulsion systems but also to hull design and everything surrounding the boating experience. At the Genoa International Boat Show, this was clear with the new Honda 4XC Design models, which significantly expand the lineup with three new boats.
The result of the collaboration with the renowned shipyards Altamarea and Ranieri International, the Honda 4XC Design range perfectly combines high performance with distinctive design, offering a truly unique yachting experience. This is largely thanks to the seamless synergy between engine and hull—an advantage only Honda Marine can offer—resulting in an exclusive and perfectly balanced line. The outcome is exceptional driving comfort, with complete packages designed to meet every boater’s needs.
Thel aunch of three new models confirms Honda Marine’s commitment to providing custom, high-quality solutions for all enthusiasts, blending a distinctive style with remarkable versatility. More specifically, the new Honda 4XC Design range now includes one new inflatable boat and two new fiberglass models, each designed for specific uses.
