Key Features of Vision Marine’s proprietary E-Motion technology:

• Dramatic increase in efficiency, torque, power, and general performance.

• Exceptionally fast charging capabilities

• Noiseless engine with minimal vibrations.

• Sustainable solution with zero emission.

• E-Motion delivers an exhilarating experience due to its high torque to horsepower ratio.

“The Lake of the Ozarks Shootout provides a great platform to showcase our groundbreaking electric technology to the boating community,” said Xavier Montagne, Chief Technology Officer of Vision Marine Technologies. “Speed and power are major driving factors for boaters, and in the recent past required using gas or diesel to run outboard motors. With our proprietary E-Motion technology, we provide the boating consumer an environmentally friendly solution that combines the necessary power and speed with off-the-line torque that we believe is far superior to any gas or diesel motor.”
