Built by Italian shipyard Riva as part of the Riva 88' Folgore series, Kar was delivered in 2021 and refitted in 2024. The yacht features interior design and exterior styling by Officina Italiana Design, while naval architecture was developed in-house by Riva. Constructed with a planing GRP hull and superstructure, the 85GT yacht was designed to deliver performance and contemporary styling.
The interior of the yacht for sale showcases a bright and contemporary environment shaped by expansive glazing, striking architectural details and refined finishes by Officina Italiana Design. The main saloon has been arranged as a welcoming social hub, featuring a large sofa and a formal dining area. Natural light floods the living spaces through oversized windows, enhancing the sense of volume throughout the yacht. This approach to interior styling can also be found aboard the Riva 88 Domino Super, where elegant living spaces and contemporary finishes remain central to the onboard experience.
The exterior of the motor yacht for sale reflects the striking design that helped the 88' Folgore earn a nomination for Best Exterior Design (24-30m) at the World Yachts Trophies 2020. Characterised by angular glazing, flowing lines and a distinctive Metallic Golden Grey hull finish, the yacht presents a bold and unmistakably modern profile. Exterior spaces have been designed to maximise time spent outdoors, including an aft deck dining area with seating for eight guests, a spacious flybridge with multiple lounging zones and a foredeck relaxation area. The 88' Folgore series also received wider industry recognition, winning the Best New Series award at the Boat International Design & Innovation Awards 2021. The yacht's emphasis on exterior entertaining and contemporary styling continues a design philosophy also evident aboard the Riva 90 Argo.
Accommodation onboard the sports cruiser for sale is arranged for up to eight guests across four cabins, comprising a full-beam owner's suite, two VIP cabins and one twin cabin. The owner's suite serves as the centrepiece of the accommodation, featuring a king-size bed, a full-beam ensuite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe. Forward, the two VIP cabins each feature queen-size beds, ensuite bathrooms and a bright, contemporary aesthetic, while the twin guest cabin offers additional flexibility for family and friends. The layout has been designed to support both privacy and extended cruising, while separate crew accommodation for up to four crew members allows service to remain discreet. A lower-deck galley positioned adjacent to the crew quarters further supports efficient onboard operations throughout a voyage.
Powered by twin 2,638hp MTU 16V 2000 M96L diesel engines, Kar reaches a top speed of 38 knots and cruises comfortably at 32 knots, while an 8,000-litre fuel capacity provides a range of approximately 350 nautical miles. These performance-focused characteristics remain a defining feature of Riva's sport yacht portfolio and can also be found aboard the Riva 102 Corsaro Super, another model developed to deliver high-speed cruising alongside generous onboard living spaces.
Kar is listed for sale with Mathieu Bardon of Worth Avenue Yachts at an asking price of €5,350,000.
