Evo Yachts Unveils the New Evo R4 Icone

Evo Yachts Unveils the New Evo R4 Icone at the Cannes Yachting Festival – Celebrating a Decade of Innovation

Ten years after the launch of the first Evo R4, Evo Yachts celebrates a major milestone with a bold new model that reflects the shipyard’s evolution while staying true to its founding DNA. The R4 Icone is a tribute to the past and a leap into the future, offering unmatched onboard comfort, sportiness, and bespoke customisation, all hallmarks of the Evo Yachts experience.

The new Evo R4 Icone will make its world debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025. With a hull approximately one metre longer than the original R4, a more aggressive bow, redesigned air intakes, and expansive hull-side windows, the Icone promises a striking profile and light-flooded interiors that elevate the onboard lifestyle.

Co-designed by Evo Yachts and Valerio Rivellini, the R4 Icone is built for year-round comfort without sacrificing performance. The main deck features an enclosed area beneath an aluminium hard top – entirely constructed by the shipyard – that integrates seamlessly with a helm console inspired by automotive design. A C-shaped sofa, adjustable pilot seat, convertible table/bed, kitchen unit, and pantograph door for smooth outdoor access round out the space, making it as practical as it is elegant.

At the stern, the XT platform, developed with Besenzoni, enhances onboard livability. It expands the aft deck and lowers closer to the water, transforming into a customisable seafront terrace ideal for any time of day.

Below deck, the R4 Icone houses two spacious double cabins, plus a hallway with fridge and storage area. Materials such as Alcantara, Alpi wood, and textured finishes lend a sense of refined warmth, creating an inviting and luxurious ambiance.

The yacht is powered by two Volvo IPS 650 engines (480 hp each), delivering dynamic performance to match its elegant looks.

True to Evo Yachts’ philosophy, the R4 Icone is highly customisable, both inside and out. Whether for families, social groups, or sea lovers who cruise all year round, the R4 Icone adapts to its owner’s lifestyle and preferences.

Evo Yachts will be at Quai St Pierre 144 from September 9 to 14, 2025. Come discover the future of yachting with the world premiere of the R4 Icone and explore the versatile elegance of the R+. We look forward to welcoming you onboard.
