Mercury Marine adds to its popular V10 Verado lineup with the new 425hp outboard and an enhanced 350hp model. Delivering class-leading acceleration and weight advantages, the new 425hp is said to be 3 seconds faster from 0-30 mph than a 450hp competitor on a 26-foot, 5,000-pound center-console boat with a heavy load, while weighing 254 pounds less and operating with 22% less noise at cruise. The outboard is also equipped with a 150-amp alternator — the highest output in its class. The enhanced 350hp model delivers 2.7 mph greater top speed than a 350hp competitor, is 4 seconds faster from 0-30 mph and 17.8 seconds faster from 0 to top speed. The new engine is also 40% quieter at cruise.
“These new V10 Verado engines reflect our commitment to giving boaters exactly what they’ve asked for: greater performance with the same smooth, refined experience they expect from Mercury,” said John Buelow, Mercury Marine president. “With this launch, we’re raising the bar in the high-horsepower category and reaffirming the Verado family’s position as the pinnacle of premium outboard performance.”
