During an exclusive event at Mercury Marine’s Lake X test facility in Florida, the company released a groundbreaking new outboard that redefines the high-horsepower outboard market and sets multiple industry firsts.
The new 7.6-liter V12 600-hp Verado is Mercury’s most powerful and capable outboard, featuring brand-new cutting-edge features to accommodate a wide variety of functions. In addition to being the world’s first V12 outboard, the Verado incorporates a two-speed automatic transmission and steerable gearcase, and features exceptional fuel economy and range.
Designed for large boats that require big outboards, the V12 Verado gets the job done, quickly getting heavy boats on plane with rapid acceleration while remaining incredibly fuel-efficient.
“With boats continuing to grow bigger and performance expectations continuing to rise, boaters have been asking for a better, more capable high‑horsepower solution to meet their needs. The V12 Verado outboard is Mercury’s answer,” says Chris Drees, Mercury Marine president. “Using our advanced engineering and design capabilities, we completely redefined outboard performance. The V12 Verado outboard delivers boaters unrivaled freedom, luxury and power to pursue their passions on the water. This is a remarkable engine that will change the future of boating.”
The V12 Verado will be available this spring. To learn more, visit mercurymarine.com.
