New Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid
Leading the Way in Hybrid Motoryachts
There are more motoryacht models available in the 58' to 60' (17.6 m to 18.2 m) range than any other, so that puts a premium on differentiation. The most dramatic difference with the Greenline 58 is its hybrid power system that can have a 110kWh battery pack (55 kWh is standard). That means when in "economical distance" mode, she has remarkable range. See how much in the video.
