Yamaha Announces Upgraded 4.2L V MAX SHO

By May 19, 2021No Comments

Get all the benefits of Yamaha Marine’s popular 4.2-liter V MAX SHO outboard, now with a full 40% more charging capacity, contemporary styling and a TotalTilt feature, which quickly tilts the engine up and down.

“The newly upgraded 4.2-liter V MAX SHO follows a familiar theme requested by Yamaha customers: Make it better, but don’t change it too much,” says Ben Speciale, president of Yamaha U.S. Marine Business Unit. “The V MAX SHO was the first outboard to prove a four-stroke outboard could be as light and powerful as a two-stroke. It now takes battery charging capability from 50 to 70 amps, a full 40% more. That extra juice greatly improves the boat’s power margins and gives anglers confidence that the systems on their boat have plenty of power to take them wherever they need to go.”

The engine will be available in 200, 225 and 250 prop-shaft horsepower, with select models available with a 25-inch shaft.
