Mercury Marine has unveiled two new low-voltage electric outboards – the Avator 75e and 110e.
The new models complete Mercury’s five-model line-up of low-voltage electric propulsion and bring Avator’s features to a higher power level.
The unveiling took place at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) taking place in Las Vegas, US.
“We are thrilled to unveil the Avator 75e and 110e on a world stage at CES,” said John Buelow, Mercury Marine president. “As we deliver on our commitment to introduce five low-voltage electric outboards, we are also excited to provide a concept of a high-voltage electric propulsion system.
“This concept, along with our incredible internal combustion products which have redefined outboard performance, continue to position us as the innovation leader in the marine industry.”
The Avator 75e and 110e will be used on a variety of applications, including aluminium and composite multihull, aluminium fishing boats, skiffs, inflatables and smaller fiberglass runabouts.
Like the 20e and 35e, the new models will also be suitable for commercial fleet applications and in ICE restricted waterways.
The 75e produces 7.5kW (7500W) of propulsive power at the propeller and the 110e produces 11kW (11000W) of propulsive power at the propeller.
The full Avator low-voltage line-up and high-voltage electric concept propulsion system will be shown at this year’s Düsseldorf International Boat Show and the Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show.
Mercury Marine is a division of Brunswick Corporation.
