Candela Seven the world's first electric-powered hydrofoil speedboat, which reduces energy consumption and noise as well as sea sickness .

According to news reportes, Candela Seven made its Swiss debut on Lake Lucerne this week, with Candela Speed Boat hoping to drum up new business with a European tour. The Stockholm-based company has delivered 16 boats since last year.

On other hand , the foils reduce water friction and the effect of waves slamming into the boat cutting energy consumption by 80% compared to normal diesel-powered boats and extending the craft’s range to 90 km (56 miles.

The boat, which costs around 250,000 euros ($296,000), would be a good fit for Switzerland's lakeside cities like Zurich, Lucerne and Geneva.

People could use it to commute across lakes or for day trips with a clean conscience from an environmental point of view.

The Lift eFoil leverages advances in lithium-battery technology and wireless communication to create an experience that’s a mix of surfing, flying, and deep-powder snowboarding. The result is a powerful, stable, and responsive ride over any body of water, regardless of the weather conditions.
