2026 Axis A245

The 2026 Axis A245 brings together proven Axis value with latest Malibu tech for buyers who want premium surf performance, intuitive control, and all-day comfort without stepping into luxury pricing. Packing everything you need for wakeboarding, surfing, and fun-filled family outings, the A245 stands out with bold style and power in a spacious 24’5” package. With seating for eighteen and legendary Malibu engineering, the A245 ensures that every rider and passenger gets a front row seat to the action.

Performance
Beneath the sleek lines, the Axis A245 features the powerful Malibu Monsoon M6Di engine, delivering up to 460 horsepower for confident acceleration and smooth cruising—even with heavy ballast loaded for maximum surf or wakeboarding sessions. Axis proudly uses Malibu’s patented Power Wedge III system, giving riders command over wake size and shape at the push of a button—quality ballast downforce makes dialing in your wave easy and repeatable, letting you shape your surf from mellow glide to monster pop. With deep-vee hull architecture, advanced hull controls, and generous ballast (up to 5,300 lbs), the A245 produces custom wakes for surfing or wakeboarding with the same tech found on higher-end Malibus.??

Comfort
Inside, the A245 shines with a flexible layout designed for all-day hangouts and easy gear stashing. Plush, ergonomic seating wraps the spacious lounge, with a well-appointed bow and a convertible observer seat ensuring premium comfort whether you’re cruising or watching the action. Clever storage solutions—board lockers, under-seat bins, and easily accessible trash and gear compartments—keep the floor clear and essentials close by for larger groups and longer days on the water. Floor materials and walk-through sun deck options combine cushy vinyl and soft-grip surfaces for safe, stylish movement throughout the boat, while the signature Axis folding tower and expansive Bimini sunshade keep everyone cool and protected.?

Technology
The A245 brings intuitive, rider-focused tech for effortless enjoyment. A 7-inch touchscreen dash puts performance controls at your fingertips, with wireless phone charging and redundant physical buttons for easy media handling and system access. Rider presets let you switch profiles for surfing, wakeboarding, or casual cruising at the touch of a button, while integrated lighting and premium audio create the perfect vibe from sunrise to sunset. Smart Malibu integrations make setup simple—just choose your wave, hit “go,” and enjoy top-tier surf and wake every session.
