News: First Princess X90 To Launch In 2026

Princess X90 Model To Hit The Water In 2026
​

The first hull in the new X90 model by Princess Yacht has progressed through the latest milestone of its construction. The yacht continues its fit-out now that the hull has been joined to deck, and some superstructure elements already as announced by the yard at the 2026 boot Düsseldorf. The exterior and Naval Architecture is the work of her builder. The new yacht is featuring the yard's H.P.P ( Hybrid Progressive-Planing) technology for ride and performance capabilities.

The X90 is the latest yacht to be added to the X-series from Princess Yachts and was initially introduced at the 2024 edition of the Cannes Yachting Festival. The yacht will differ from many of the other stablemates in the series with the central focus of the open beach-club at the stern and the glass transom and fold-down terraces that offer unparalleled views. It will still feature the "Super Flybridge" concept coined by Princess Yachts available on the smaller X-series members.

Back to the hull refinement of the X90. The hull has been engineered to optimize performance across as wide of the speed speed range as possible. Therefore the hull has been developed to balance efficient low-speed cruising with high-speed planing capabilities. You will find the X90 needs approximately 10 per cent less power above the 16-knot mark than the Princess Y85 model while matching the model's fuel usage below 10-knots despite being nearly 18-tonnes heavier. The X90 is pegged to a top speed of 28-knots.

“Reaching this stage of the X90 programme is a significant milestone for Princess Yachts,” said Princess Yachts CEO Will Green. “With the canopy and hardtop now in place, we are well advanced in the fit-out stage and moving ever closer to unveiling a yacht that truly redefines the X Class." As many as three X90 yachts are currently under construction with a fourth soon expected to commence build.
