GNV ORION, which will serve between Genoa and Palermo from June, is 218-metres long and has a capacity for 1,700 passengers in 433 cabins and 3,080 lanemetres of freight.

There are also additional “energy-saving features” on board, such as: heat recycling technologies using turbo-alternator; use of inverters for optimising the electrical load of pumps and fans; use of LED lights throughout the lighting installation; optimisation of the shapes of the hull, bulbous bow, propellers, and rudders, and application of silicone paint on the hull to minimise the fuel consumption required for propulsion.
