Production of the first hulls of both the Iconica 80 and Iconica 100 has officially begun, marking a significant milestone in Austin Parker's collaboration with Pininfarina and the continued development of the Iconica line.
The two yachts will be presented at the 2027 Cannes Yachting Festival, offering the first opportunity to experience the new models in their production form.
The announcement comes as the two yachts move from design and engineering into production. The complete design, development, and engineering cycle has now been finalized, with model and mould production scheduled for completion by the end of next month. The milestone will bring both projects to full serial-production readiness and enable construction of the first hulls to begin.
Designed by Pininfarina, the Iconica 80 and Iconica 100 introduce a new design language for Austin Parker, while reflecting a broader evolution in the shipyard's approach to contemporary yacht design. The two models share a coherent design identity but are conceived as distinct expressions of the Iconica concept.
Austin Parker has also released the standard specifications, pricing and available options for both yachts, providing the market with a detailed overview of their positioning and principal features ahead of their physical debut.
The first Iconica 80 hull has already been sold during the design phase, an early indication of the interest surrounding the new collection and the confidence placed in the project. The world premieres at Cannes 2027 will offer the first opportunity to experience the two yachts in their completed physical form.
For Austin Parker and Pininfarina, the Iconica 80 and Iconica 100 represent the beginning of a new chapter in which design, engineering and production converge to establish a distinctive direction for the brand's future.
