Mumbai Electric Hydrofoil Ferry Project

under construction

Mumbai has introduced India’s first electric hydrofoil ferry system to expand low-emission urban mobility across coastal commuter routes. The vessel operates between Gateway of India, Alibaug, and Elephanta Island, with future plans to connect Navi Mumbai International Airport to southern business districts. The ferry uses underwater wing-like structures to lift the hull above water, reducing drag and energy consumption compared to diesel ferries. This initiative supports Mumbai's transition to cleaner, climate-resilient transport infrastructure and aims to reduce congestion and emissions in the metropolitan region.
