New to the Viaggio lineup for 2026, the Lago Z22B offers midline affordability with top-line power, performance and luxury features. Rigged with a Suzuki 200 outboard, the Lago Z topped 36 mph and hit 30 mph from an in-gear idle in 11 seconds. Note that this 200 is Suzuki’s 4-cylinder model (it also offers a V-6 200) so the acceleration and speed are more reflective of the lower price of this engine. We saw best fuel economy at 15 mph and 3,000 rpm, for 3.5 gph and 4.3 mpg. At that rate, the 58-gallon fuel tank offers over 226 miles of range with a 10 percent reserve.
The Lago gives solid sure-footedness in lake chop and when crossing large wakes.

Viaggio’s Lago hull features triple .100-inch-thick 25-inch tubes with spray rails on the outside tubes and lifting strakes on all three. A spray shield underneath reduces drag for improved speed. The performance package comes with SeaStar Pro steering. The Lago gives solid sure-footedness in lake chop and when crossing large wakes, as well as carving clean turns with slight banking.
A vinyl-wrapped dash top sits over 5-inch Medallion analog gauges with a 7-inch Simrad graph and a JL Audio four-speaker sound system.

Abovedecks, the perimeter enclosure employs Viaggio’s distinguishing feature, a 2-inch-tall extruded top rail, showing hard lines and a modern presentation. The bow seating features two facing contoured loungers, perched on Rotocast plastic seat bases with storage built in.
The captain’s helm features a new etched-glass windscreen, and sits atop a built-in 3-inch riser for better visibility. A vinyl-wrapped dash top sits over 5-inch Medallion analog gauges with a 7-inch Simrad graph and a JL Audio four-speaker sound system with a subwoofer (upgradable to six speakers).

Aft, very innovative thinking has produced a unique and versatile arrangement. At the port side, there’s a long, very spacious U-lounge with flip-up lounge seats fore and aft, along with perimeter fencing to keep sunbathers safely in the boat while under way. Starboard, there’s an all-new bar and electric outdoor grill setup. The grill features its own battery, so it doesn’t draw from the house or cranking batteries. A built-in Corian cutting board doubles as a sink cover. The sink offers a 5-gallon water supply underneath, next to a storage compartment for utensils, just atop a built-in trash receptacle.
