Supra SL 450 2024 DEMO

Overview

The 2024 Supra SL 450 stands as a bold expression of performance and design for those who take their time on the water seriously. Fitted with the proven Raptor 6.2L V8 pushing 450 horsepower, this model delivers commanding torque and remarkable control across any load. Combining professional-level wake and surf technology with luxury refinements, it brings both athletes and families together for unforgettable days on the water.

Performance and Power

At the core of the 2024 SL 450 is its Raptor 6.2L engine, a motor built for heavy loads and long days on the lake. With 450 horsepower, the SL 450 has the muscle to pull even the most demanding riders out of the hole and power through the wake with confidence. The boat’s smart design ensures excellent tracking, balance, and responsiveness, even when fully ballasted. The precision-fit propeller and drivetrain work in concert with Supra’s Swell Surf System to deliver consistent, powerful, and customizable wakes. For boaters on Lake Norman, this means quick transitions between wakeboard and surf modes, reliable performance even in variable lake conditions, and the ability to fine-tune every ride. Supra’s AutoWake technology monitors pitch, roll, and displacement in real-time, automatically adjusting ballast and attitude to maintain an ideal surfing shape — even as passengers move about. The experience is seamless, letting the driver focus on the moment while the technology does the work.

Design and Comfort

From bow to stern, the 2024 Supra SL 450 impresses with thoughtful design and craftsmanship. Every touchpoint reflects a focus on comfort and usability. Plush seating supports all-day outings, and the triple-density foam construction ensures it feels soft without losing structure over time. The spacious cockpit layout lets everyone ride comfortably and move easily around the boat. Up front, the open bow is sculpted for lounging, with wraparound cushioning and a recessed step to reach the front deck easily. The transom features Supra’s rear-facing “Chill Zone” seats to keep everyone engaged during surf sessions. Below deck, storage is abundant and organized—the ideal match for those long Lake Norman weekends loaded with boards, coolers, and gear. Interior enhancements include CoolFeel vinyl for heat resistance, accent lighting, and wireless charging stations. Supra knows how to blend functionality with mood; the integrated RGB lighting system lets you personalize the evening atmosphere, whether you’re rafted up near Cornelius or cruising through sunset glass.

Technology and Control

Driving the SL 450 feels intuitive. The helm is anchored by the Supra Vision Control touchscreen, organizing navigation, surf settings, stereo, and boat data in one clean interface. Everything from ballast adjustments to lighting presets is at your fingertips. The JL Audio system wraps the cabin in crisp, immersive sound that keeps up with the pace of the day. Connectivity extends beyond the helm—Supra’s systems integrate with mobile apps for monitoring engine diagnostics, hours, and maintenance intervals. Owners can also set up automatic updates and remote system checks for peace of mind before every outing.

Wake and Wave Engineering

The SL 450’s wake-shaping technology sets the benchmark in its class. With its refined hull design and comprehensive surf system, riders can quickly switch sides, tune wave shape, and store rider profiles within seconds. Supra’s Swell system is distinctly adjustable—wave length, height, and push can all be programmed in real-time. Whether you’re pulling seasoned wakeboarders or beginners learning the ropes, the SL 450 delivers every session with strength and predictability. Lake Norman’s broad coves and long calm stretches are an ideal environment for this technology to shine. The instant responsiveness of the Swell system means you spend less time setting up and more time riding. Combined with AutoWake, it transforms the experience into one of control and creativity. Why Choose the 2024 Supra SL 450 • Ideal for wake surfing and wakeboarding • 450 horsepower Raptor engine provides serious muscle for fully loaded crews • Advanced Swell Surf System with AutoWake maintains wave perfection effortlessly • Spacious 24.5-foot layout designed for comfort and control • Perfect for families, riders, and weekend adventures on Lake Norman
