CMA CGM is a world-renowned container shipping company. This signing is the first high-end ro-ro passenger ship project built by CMA CGM and the first cooperation with Jinling Shipyard (Weihai).
This project is another upgraded version of the cruise-class high-end ro-ro passenger ship received after Jinling Shipyard (Weihai) took over STEAN E-FLEX series and FINNLINES SUPERSTAR series of high-end ro-ro passenger ships.
The ship is equipped with a POD electric propulsion system and battery system, which can reduce sulfur oxide emissions by 99% and nitrogen oxide emissions by 80%, and will become a "green corridor" on the Mediterranean Sea.
