OutdoorHub 11.29.11
Perfect for tenders, dinghies, motorboats and sailboats up to 6 tons, Torqeedo’s next generation of tiller control electric outboards offers all-around improvements. The new Cruise 2.0T and 4.0T are stronger, faster, more robust and more efficient.
A new, innovative display on the tiller shows information regarding battery charge status, remaining range, speed over ground and input power. Providing more comfort than its Cruise predecessors, it offers a 4 AWG, plug and go cable set, including fuse and main switch. A tried and tested drivetrain provides superior power and range from limited battery capacities. Fully waterproof to IP67 standards, these models can endure both fresh and salt water.
Operating on 48V with 8-9.9 hp, the 4.0T motor only weighs 40 lbs. The smaller Cruise 2.0T operates at 24V with 5-6 hp and weighs 39 lbs. Both models are offered in short and long shaft versions.
Torqeedo’s new Cruise 2.0T is priced at $3,299, while the Cruise 4.0T is $3,799.
Torqeedo offers the most technologically advanced electric outboards on the market. Combining lithium batteries with cutting-edge technology and design, its outboards offer unrivalled strength and efficiency.
