What makes it different
Ever Ace arrived in July 2021 as the largest container ship ever built — 23,992 TEU, twenty-eight more than HMM Algeciras — and made her maiden Europe call weeks after her fleetmate Ever Given had made the company famous for entirely the wrong reasons.
Built by Samsung Heavy Industries on Geoje Island, she leads Evergreen's A class: twelve ships pressed against the megamax envelope, 61.53 metres across with twenty-four rows of containers abreast.
Eight TEU is all that separates her from the 24,000 milestone, which her Chinese-built sister Ever Alot duly collected in 2022. Records at the top of this table are now measured in single stacks of boxes.
