Torqeedo Launches Next Generation of Tiller Control Electric Motors

alt

Perfect for tenders, dinghies, motorboats and sailboats up to six 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 than earlier models.

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 drive train 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 lb. The smaller Cruise 2.0T operates at 24V with 5-6 HP and weighs 39 lb. Both models are offered in short and long shaft versions.

Since then we’ve repowered, installed Starlink, and retired from work. Now, with confidence in our engine and our connectivity and more time to sail, we were Superior-ready.
