The design delivers excellent fuel economy, reduced environmental impact, reduced need for water ballast, slow-steaming potential and flexible transit speeds, loading flexibility as well as increased container capacity including higher than usual reefer capacity.

 

Propulsion efficiency is significantly boosted by an electrically driven counter rotating ABB Azipod unit.

 

State of the art manoeuvrability

 

ABB Onboard DC grid system

 

Highly flexible transit speeds, including slow steaming

 

Total high-cube capacity of 2,116 TEU

 

Very efficient propulsion system gives the vessel a fuel economy 15 – 25 % better per TEU
