Torqeedo Electric Outboards

Torqeedo electric motors are state of the art, compact, quiet, efficient drive systems for electric pontoons and other small boats. Torqeedo leads the way in electric drive technology, power, run time and dependability. Torqeedo's new Cruise models provide remote steering and power comparable to outboards for those who live on internal combustion restricted lakes or those who just want green, clean energy for their Pontoon boat.

The new standard of powerful electric outboards

We’ve upgraded our proven, reliable Cruise 3.0 and 6.0 e-motors with 50% more power.

The new electric boat motors include optimized helical gears to provide quiet, lightweight power unrivaled in this market.

This durable and extremely robust design is perfect for sailboats, motorboats and commercial applications up to 12 tons.

Available with remote throttle (R) or tiller (T) control, in 3 kW, 6 kW, 10 kW and 12 kW versions - with a variety of shaft lengths to accommodate a wide range of applications.

Details:

• Battery supply:

  The Cruise 3.0 R requires a battery voltage of 24 V, the Cruise 6.0 R requires 48 V. We recommend a battery supply of batteries with at least 180 Ah capacity each. Lead-based batteries are not resistant to high current, i.e. the capacities indicated on the casing are not available when the batteries are to be fully discharged in a short time (e.g. 1 or 2 hours). For this reason, you should allow for sufficient reserves. Alternatively, the Cruise 3.0 R can also be run with at least one lithium 24-3500 power battery from the Torqeedo Power series. The Cruise 6.0 R can be run with one Lithium power 48-5000 battery from the Torqeedo Power series.

• Connection to remote throttle/steering:

  Der motor is designed for connection with a standard remote steering system (e.g. Teleflex). Included in the delivery are a guide tube which runs through the transom bracket as well as a link arm.

• On-board information system:

  The computer integrated into the remote throttle control analyses and combines information received from the motor, batteries and GPS. While the motor and GPS data are very accurate, when hooked up to 3rd party batteries. the battery information is based on estimates which can vary according to the connected battery type, age and capacity in each case. The indications of battery charge status and remaining range are therefore estimates that are less accurate than those when used with the Torqeedo Power batteries which give you real time statistics as it actually has the capability to communicate with the battery. 

• License friendly:

  The Cruise 6.0 R has a shaft performance has a static thrust that is as strong as a 9.9 hp internal combustion engine. so although there are no official horsepower ratings of electric engines, it will be compatible for many lakes that have horse power restrictions!
