People who own million-dollar yachts will sometimes stop in port and cruise to view the local scenery. Which vehicle will they ride at such a time?
Some said they would take a taxi. But for the ultra-rich, Everett has a different answer. Everrati is a UK-based company that specializes in converting gasoline cars into electric vehicles, and their latest product is specifically designed for the task of transporting people without ever setting foot on the ground. Their famous products include the Porsche 911 and Land Rover Defender.
Land Rover Defender transformed into a high-end pure electric car
Named Shore Tender, the vehicle in question is a classic Land Rover Defender that received an extensive restoration before being converted into an all-electric luxury off-roader.
The Shore Tender was born from a collaboration between renowned superyacht designers Bannenberg & Rowell and yacht brokerage company Edmiston.
Avratti said the special Land Rover Defender features a soft roof made of sailcloth, floors made of recycled marine plastic and doors that can be easily removed for storage in the garage on the yacht or with a supporting vessel if available. Located in the garage, the electric Land Rover Defender can be charged from the yacht’s electrical system.
As a car serving the rich, the electric Land Rover Defender certainly does not lack luxury features. These include the wine refrigerator under the hood that no longer has the engine, the picnic basket, the tool compartment, the towels under the bench… Because the cooler under the hood is far away when traveling, this Land Rover Defender even has a more convenient champagne cooler. The bottle holder is attached to the rear of the vehicle.

The outer paint layer can be customized to match the mother ship. Sailcloth duffel bags embroidered with the yacht’s name are also part of the special package.
Everratty says the Shore Tender Defender can be ordered in pairs, giving customers the opportunity to “share the thrill of driving two vehicles in stunning destinations.” As extravagant as this sounds, it also means that the boat must be very large or have at least two people traveling together.
The Shore Tender Defender has all the features of a high-end electric vehicle with an electric powertrain, regenerative braking and fast charging capabilities.

Everratty did not announce the sale price. But a regular Land Rover Defender, meaning without the involvement of sailing experts, costs 225,000 USD (5.5 billion VND). The Shore Tender Defender should definitely be more expensive than that.
However, there are also opinions that do not appreciate the noisy Tender Defender. For example page New Atlas – Specializing in news about science, technology, innovation and lifestyle, serving over 5 million readers every month – he believes converting the Defender into an “electric buggy” for transporting superyacht enthusiasts is a waste of money. Is. The vehicle is renowned for its off-road capabilities.
