Reclaiming the Waterways
Have you ever been stuck in a traffic jam? Do you care about the environment? Transportation on water used to be the most efficient method for freight and passengers for centuries. Cstrider is reclaiming the waterways. With Cstrider – a Sustainable and Electrified Transport System – we aim to modernise waterborne passenger transportation! Cstrider is highly flexible and can be customised for various applications fit for use in urban, as well as rural contexts. A complete system includes a number of vessels, floating docks, charging and traffic control needed for fast deployment and operation. Cstrider provides time and cost efficient waterfront commuting.
Features
We scale the number of ferries and propulsion systems to fit the operation needs in terms of cost and energy effectively. The price is also affected by the level of automation requested. This enables the creation of virtual bridges, highly flexible on-demand travel, temporary traffic when road/bridge construction work or city events with increased demands. Our ferries have short production lead times and the possibility of rapid deployment.
The exterior design presents a futuristic but friendly form, with a tapered profile framing vast side windows, contrasted by a rounded windshield maintaining a softness necessary for approachability. Through the panorama of transparent surfaces, the city’s waterfront feels like an extension of the interior. The interior elements are fully modular to accommodate variations in passenger needs, but static components along with example layouts have been user-tested to ensure viability. This also enables bikes and trolleys to be brought onboard.
Board of Directors
About Us
Cstrider is a startup founded in 2023 by former colleagues. The founders have collective experiences from heavy duty on-road, off-road and marine product development and design. We believe in contributing to accelerate electrification and reduce emission from transportation. Our solution can also reduce commuting time and support increased quality of urban living by enabling on-demand shorter distance travels. In less than a year we have built and started sea trials with our first concept demo vessel; Celia One.
Prototype
Cstrider is the future of urban waterborne transportation. By having a flexible system, we adapt to customized needs of each city. In an environmentally friendly and sustainable way provide a solution that can reduce commuting time and support increased quality of urban living. We are reclaiming the waterways. Our smart transport system is closing the gap in cities where water is limiting people’s mobility. Cstrider is now in a product state where we can start sales and marketing. We are looking for investors that have an interest in the transport sector, urban living and reduce climate impact. We open our first investment round in December 2024. Do you want to get onboard?
