PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS

SPEED & PERFORMANCE PROFILE

72.4 MPH Top Speed:

The 2022 GP1800R SVHO delivers breathtaking performance with a verified top speed of 72.4 mph (62.9 knots) based on professional testing . Even with a full fuel tank and choppy water conditions, it cruised comfortably in the 36-40 mph range, demonstrating its versatility from aggressive racing to relaxed cruising .

300 HP Supercharged SVHO Engine:

The GP1800R SVHO is powered by Yamaha’s most technologically advanced marine engine ever designed—a 1.8L, supercharged 4-cylinder SVHO powerplant delivering more power and torque than any engine ever in a Yamaha WaveRunner . Engine highlights include:

• Supercharged induction with intercooler for maximum power output
• Electronic Fuel Injection with four electronically controlled injectors for smooth, high power delivery with low fuel consumption
• One-piece cylinder and crankcase assembly for tremendous rigidity that’s lighter and stiffer than two-piece designs
• Slant Detection Switch stops engine and oil pumps immediately if watercraft becomes overturned, protecting the motor from water ingestion

NanoXcel2 Lightweight Construction:

Yamaha’s second-generation NanoXcel2 hull and deck material is significantly lighter than traditional fiberglass, delivering improved acceleration, top-end speed, fuel economy, and handling . The result is a state-of-the-art watercraft that is quick and nimble, with balance and maneuverability that truly connects the driver to the machine . A redesigned hull liner moves the fuel tank 80mm towards the stern and 15mm lower, enhancing nimble handling and agility .

160mm High-Pressure Pump with 8 Vanes:

The 160mm, 8-vane high pressure pump features a large capacity intake duct, a specifically developed impeller, and large diameter nozzle matching the tremendous power of the 1.8L supercharged engine . For 2021, the pump was upgraded to allow less turbulent water to flow through, resulting in better acceleration and less cavitation in choppy water conditions . The race-inspired ride plate and intake grate keep riders glued to the water, even at top speed .
