Watercar Panther

One Owner Vehicle

Lightly used in Texas. Currently located at the WaterCar factory in California; however, may return to Texas this summer.

Custom Features

• Two-tone coastal blue-grey exterior with white diamond-stitched interior


• White bimini top for shade and open-air driving


• Custom color-matched white outboard

Core Performance Specs

The vehicle uses a dual-propulsion system to handle both environments efficiently.

• 
  On Water: Powered by a 115 HP Mercury Pro XS outboard, reaching speeds up to 35 mph. It features a 19 foot aluminum tri-hull V-bottom design for stable handling and quick planing.


• 
  On Land: Functions as a Low-Speed Vehicle (LSV) powered by a 48V electric motor, reaching a top speed of 25 mph.

Key Features & Innovation

• World’s first amphibious street legal boat


• Seamless land-to-water transition


• Designed, tested, and hand-built in the USA


• 
  Dual Registration: The vehicle has been assigned both a 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), allowing it to be titled/registered as a Slow Speed or Neighborhood Electric Vehicle for roadway use, and a 12-digit Hull Identification Number (HIN), allowing it to be legally titled and registered as a vessel (as it currently is in Texas).


• 
  No Trailer Needed: A standout "Tow Mode" allows the vehicle to function as its own trailer. You can hitch it to a truck, raise the front wheels, and tow it on its own rear wheels.


• 
  Rapid Transition: With the push of a button, the hydraulic system lowers the wheels for land travel or retracts them for water use in seconds.


• 
  Unsinkable Design with Marine-Ready Hull: The hull is a fully welded aluminum unibody, epoxy-coated and filled with US Coast Guard-approved closed-cell flotation foam.


• 
  Street-Legal Compliance: Street-legal engineering includes all DOT-required components like headlights, turn signals, seat belts, and a windshield.
