Mercedes-AMG, the go-fast arm of the German auto manufacturer, has combined with the US high-performance boat manufacturer Cigarette Racing Team to develop the Cigarette Racing 50’ Vision GT Concept, a one-of-a-kind special model which is the most powerful production twin-engine performance boat ever developed and built by Cigarette Racing.
The collaboration between Cigarette Racing Team, Mercedes-AMG and Polyphony Digital Inc. created one-of-a-kind elements for the Cigarette Racing 50’ Vision GT Concept, incorporating a stunning Alubeam-painted exterior that includes a custom matt-black hull and accents.
The Cigarette Racing 50’ Vision GT Concept has twin 1650hp Mercury Racing engines, which develop 300hp per engine more than the standard engines used in the 50’ Cigarette Marauder. Lightweight construction has allowed for approximately 450kg to be removed from the standard spec weight, thereby helping the boat achieve an estimated top speed of more than 120 knots!
The hand-crafted interior is black with black Alcantara accents, and uses carbon-fibre dash panels inside the boat with silver-face gauges. User interface technology is also maximised with Bluetooth, computerised controls, four high-definition displays, and the next-generation integration of Garmin and Cigarette navigation and audio.
The price of this one-of-a-kind boat from Cigarette Racing Team is $US1.5 million.
