The vessels were ordered in 2018 and are scheduled for delivery in 2022.
The ferries are the last of five vessels of the E-Flexer series that Stena Line ordered from sister company Stena RoRo. They are being built at the CMI Jinling Weihai Shipyard in China.
Of the first three vessels, the first two — Stena Estrid and Stena Edda — have already entered service on the Irish Sea earlier this year. The third vessel, Stena Embla, is in the final stages of construction and is expected to go into service on the Belfast-Liverpool route according to plan in early 2021.
