During boot Düsseldorf in January, ePropulsion announced the global launch of its latest innovation, the eLite electric outboard motor created for the tender and smaller boating market.
The eLite’s direct-drive motor and advanced design propeller deliver high efficiency with near-silent operation. Designed to be the most compact and lightweight electric outboard in its class, the ePropulsion eLite 500W electric outboard is an easy-to-use alternative to small internal combustion engines. Sport mode adds an additional 50% boost in power, bringing the top speed to over 5 mph. With multiple charging options, including 110/220V AC, 12V DC and solar with the use of optional ePropulsion converters, it can be fully charged in around four hours.
At just under 3 feet in length and weighing 14.7 pounds, including the built-in battery, the eLite stores easily. The one-click quick-release bracket allows for installation and removal in a matter of seconds. The outboard is available for just under $1,000.
