Riviera 585 SUV – World Premiere

The new 585 SUV is the culmination of 10 years of evolution and the launch of more than 220 SUV yachts from 39 to 64 feet in length since Riviera pioneered the SUV concept with the 445 model in 2012.

The Riviera design team’s clever use of space aboard this new yacht has created an exceptional design, including three large staterooms and three bathrooms, as well as a marvellous space aft of the full-beam midships master suite that can be configured as a utility room, laundry, crew quarters, or additional accommodation with its own bathroom.

She offers the latest generation SUV design qualities including an expansive water sports space where the cockpit opens out to the boarding platform, a superb semi-enclosed alfresco deck and an inviting foredeck entertaining space with a comfortable wrap-around lounge.

Her interior is rich with premium fabrics, exquisitely hand-finished exotic timber cabinetry, in-vogue lounges, and plush carpet in all staterooms.

Power for the adventurous new 585 SUV is provided by twin Volvo Penta D13 IPS 1200s, rated at 900hp (662 kW) each, or twin Volvo Penta D13 IPS 1350s, rated at 1000hp (735kW). Both options deliver exceptional power-to-weight performance.
