Riva Super Florida – Italian art of living

Brand
Riva
Model
Super Florida
Year
1953/1968

The Florida elevated. A direct evolution of the Florida, the Super Florida pushes refinement and performance further. 6.10 metres of mahogany polished to a mirror finish, a leather-clad cockpit, lines signed in the Riva yard’s golden age – the 1960s, when Carlo Riva made the brand the absolute object of desire for Hollywood and the European aristocracy. The boat of Brigitte Bardot, Sophia Loren, of endless Italian summers.

Original architecture. Mahogany hull, Chrysler V8 of 177 horsepower, top speed close to 35 knots. A spirited boat that remains, even today, one of the most exhilarating vintage runabouts to drive – at the cost of 1960s-grade fuel consumption, noise and maintenance.

The Lanéva conversion. Turnkey retrofit, installed by our partner Bellini Nautica or an approved shipyard. Electric motor aligned to the original output (typically 130 to 160 kW, the equivalent of 175 to 215 thermal hp), modular battery pack (60 to 80 kWh depending on usage), connected supervision. Period dashboard and controls preserved in full. Original speed is maintained, while fuel consumption, noise and maintenance are slashed.

On board, you will experience… the magic of the Super Florida without the compromises. The same lines, the same leather, the same bow sound – but a clean, linear acceleration, and the tacit (or explicit) permission to navigate protected zones where V8s are no longer welcome.
