We are pleased to inform you that the eJET 450, launched in 2017 by Z Nautic under the Avon brand, is changing its name to become the flagship of Zodiac's electric range.

This transfer has several strategic objectives for the Group:

  • Gain visibility by benefiting from the worldwide recognition of the Zodiac brand
  • Gain credibility with the general public, Zodiac being the reference with a unique expertise and savoir faire regarding pneumatic boats
  • Gain market share using Zodiac's network which is worldwide and strong.
The Z Nautic Group's leisure range will therefore be made up of two brands: the Bombard brand and the Zodiac brand. At the end of 2020, the Avon brand will disappear from the group.

After more than two years of development, Zodiac has introduced the first 4.50m electric tender, designed for the yachting market and pro-innovation customers. A real toy requiring no gasoline, oil or maintenance, the Zodiac eJET is a technological gem that operates using a rechargeable battery and a water jet.

Luxurious, compact, aesthetic and silent, it offers between 1h30 and 8 hours of autonomy on the water, and its maximum speed is 30 knots. A real revolution in the maritime world, it is now the first electric boat developed by Zodiac, which has made research and innovation its top priorities in recent years.

To find out more, please consult the press kit and pictures of the boat!

The entire ZODIAC team, in particular our range manager, is available to answer all your questions in the form of mini interviews.

For more information see eJET on the Zodiac website.
