OK, I was a bit cynical but this actually does seem like a well-designed boat for what it is (a superyacht tender.) Stable, accelerates fast, appears well made, 10/10 toy for the rich. I imagine it'll be popular in that market if they manage to make them in large enough numbers and don't have any serious problems they'll do very well.
That said, it is still a quarter million dollar toy for the rich... so the environmental impact of one dinghy (electric or not), amongst all the megayachts and private jets, is really nothing.
In case anyone's curious about specs, they're 20'/6m long, draft 18"/0.45m, 1850 lb/840 kg, seat 5-10.
