NAVEE<\/strong> open pre-orders for WaveFly 5X<\/strong>fancy electricity “flying speedboat”<\/strong> designed to dive above water. With difficulty $200,000 starting price<\/strong>this water and air vehicle brings i 85 km\/h (53 mph) top speed<\/strong> and is aimed at people looking for a new toy to replace their Ferrari.<\/p>\n On June 4, 2026, I went to a meeting NAVEE launch event<\/strong> in the middle Suzhou<\/strong>there WaveFly 5X<\/strong> he was the star of the show. There, the travel brand also showed a wide range of programs, including fast e-scooters, an electric dirt bike, push golf carts, an exoskeleton, and a prototype eVTOL Karting 5 flying car, which I covered in my hands-on article.<\/p>\n NAVEE’<\/strong>s CEO, Lu Jian,<\/strong> he took the WaveFly 5X<\/strong> out for its first flight<\/strong> at Dong Taihu Lake, in front of the media, colleagues, and guests. From the shore, it looked like a small plane flying fast over the water.<\/p>\n NAVEE CEO Lu Jian, ready to get off the WaveFly 5X after a test flight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n I WaveFly 5X<\/strong> is the buyer’s grade wing-in-ground (WIG) technology<\/strong>which means it uses floor effect<\/strong> rather than flying high like a normal plane. Low impact is the cushion of air that forms between the wing and the surrounding area. For the WaveFly 5X, that environment is water, so the craft is designed for flying only 30 to 80 cm above it<\/strong>as far as 70 minutes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The craft delivers until 80 km wide<\/strong> and supports a large load of 140 kg<\/strong>. It includes a tandem-wing aerodynamic layout<\/strong>two 17,700W electric motors<\/strong>i aerospace-grade carbon fiber body<\/strong>and a low-pull lifting system<\/strong> reduce water resistance.<\/p>\n I WaveFly 5X<\/strong> he can leave lakes, shores, or islands<\/strong> outside the runway or airport. It also uses push\/pull controls<\/strong> that NAVEE claims makes it easier to operate than a boat, and the company says no driver’s license required<\/strong>. That claim will still depend on local laws and where consumers will use the art.<\/p>\n During the presentation, Shicheng Zhang, NAVEE Aircraft Product Manager<\/strong>highlighted a an air cushion that works on the ground<\/strong> that reduces the impact of waves, a millisecond-response flight control system<\/strong>a low center of gravity<\/strong>as well as Aerospace grade composite structure<\/strong>. All those features are designed to improve stability and safety. According to NAVEE, boarding “not seasick,”<\/strong> making the WaveFly 5X smoother than a boat while easier to maneuver than an airplane.<\/p>\n The NAVEE flying speedboat is fully electric, using ia hot swappable battery<\/strong>and foundations custom options<\/strong> for an additional fee. The company also revealed sustainable things<\/strong> as part of the design. This high-end recreational vehicle is aimed at waterfront owners, resorts, private islands, and early adopters<\/strong> who want something different from a jet ski or speedboat.<\/p>\n NAVEE has confirmed that many distributors have signed letters of intent to deliver WaveFly 5X<\/strong> in key global markets, incl North America, Europe, Middle East, and Asia-Pacific<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Filed ![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cdnbunny.ubergizmo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/NAVEE-WaveFly-5X-CEO-Lu-Jian-jpg.jpg\")
