The Von Mercier Arosa Sports Hovercraft is set to Redefine the Luxury Maritime Sector - gallery

The Von Mercier Arosa is a hovercraft unlike any other, and it blends a speedboat and sports car for any terrain

This unique vehicle is the brain child of Michael Mercier, the founder of Von Mercier

With it's lightweight chromium alloy and carbon fiber body, the Arosa weighs in at just 701 pounds and can cruise at a speed of 40 mph and tops out at 80 mph

It is powered by a couple of electric motors and a gas engine that acts as a generator with a range of 124 miles

The Patented directional control and fly-by-wire help with steering and controlling this sports hovercraft

This tech is needed as manoeuvring a hovercraft is anything but easy. The Arosa sits on an Air-Cushion, 7" high

There's room for two in the cabin. The cockpit is quite spartan and is devoid of any creature comforts barring a steering wheel and throttle contorls

The Von Mercier Arosa, is based on the Supercraft concept shown in 2015, and back then, it cost, $75,000

Although the Supercraft was delayed, this production spec Arosa is slated for deliveries later this year. Swipe up to Read More.
