Sanlorenzo has introduced the SX120, the largest model in its crossover yacht range. Measuring 120 feet with a gross tonnage of 270 GT, the SX120 represents an update to the SX line, which combines best characteristics of flybridge and explorer yachts.
According to Sanlorenzo CEO Tommaso Vincenzi, the SX120 is intended to build on the existing SX concept, placing emphasis on onboard space, open-plan layouts and a connection to the environment.
A key exterior feature is the superyacht’s extended beach area, which can expand from approximately 430 to 753 square feet via folding side terraces. Oh, there’s a retractable pool here as well.
The SX120 is also the first superyacht to use Volvo Penta’s new IPS Professional Platform. The propulsion system has four 1,000 hp engines with pod drives and counter-rotating props. This setup takes up less engine room space, improves maneuverability and overall performance. The system also includes Eco Mode, which adjusts power output based on real-time demand to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
The additional interior volume gained from the compact propulsion system allowed Sanlorenzo’s team to reconfigure the yacht with a four-deck scheme. Belowdecks, are four guest staterooms, one of which can convert to a lounge, crew quarters and even a hammam. The main deck is notable for its salon, a staircase designed by Piero Lissoni, a dining area for up to 14 guests and a forward owners’ stateroom with private access to the bow.
The SX120’s upper deck is designed as a flex space with panoramic views, intended to serve as a media room, dining area or playroom. Above, the sun deck has a modular-seating arrangement called the “Smart Island,” which can be rearranged myriad ways.
Interior design elements include wooden paneling across the ceilings and bulkheads, steel-effect finishes and alternating parquet and carpet soles. The owners’ stateroom has a decorative backlit headboard that separates the sleeping space from the closet area.
The Sanlorenzo SX120 has a reported top speed of approximately 23 knots and a max cruising range of about 2,000 nautical miles. Look for the SX120 to debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival from September 9–14, 2025.
