Between 23 and 25 knots, total fuel consumption dropped below 3.5 litres per nautical mile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At 30 knots, the engines were still running close to their economical range. Despite short, confused waves of around one metre, sometimes reaching 1.5 metres, the hull remained composed and comfortable, according to the crew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Panamera Yachts 110 reached 54 to 55 knots at roughly 5,800 rpm. An earlier run reportedly produced 56 to 57 knots at 6,000 rpm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Test Data of the Panamera Yachts 110<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Test conditions<strong>:<\/strong> approximately 6,500\u20137,000 kg displacement, with short and irregular waves around 1\u20131.5 metres.
