ENVGO to showcase NV1 Prototype in Ontario This Spring and Summer

May 13, 2025

Canadian company ENVGO has announced that it will showcase its NV1 electric hydrofoil prototype at two events in Ontario this year.

The NV1 prototype will appear at Charge Ahead, an electric vehicle and charging event in Bracebridge on May 31.

It will also be showcased at Green Innovation Weekend in Orillia on July 25 and 26, along with an array of sustainable solutions and technologies.

NV1 utilizes state-of-the-art hydrofoil technology to significantly increase the power and range of its electric motor by reducing drag through the water. As well as reducing emissions from internal combustion engines, it also reduces shoreline erosion and environmental damage from wake.

“We built this boat for inland lakes and cottage country,” ENVGO Vice President of Business Pete Keller said. “This can bring back the serenity to people’s cottages.”

ENVGO is currently taking reservations for NV1 with a refundable $1,000 USD deposit. And according to Keller, spaces are filling up.

“We wanted to build something that we thought was cool, that we would really enjoy boating, and we’ve had great reactions and feedback from everybody that we show it to,” he said. “They absolutely love it.”
