Cruise 4.0 RS / 4.0RL (Remote Steering)
The Torqeedo Cruise 4.0R Electric Outboard has unbeatable thrust force of up to 10 Horse Power!
New with the thrust force of a 10 HP internal combustion outboard and with improved functions for remote throttle and steering.
We developed our new Cruise R series for boats, which are controlled with remote steering and remote throttle, as well as for sailboats steered with a rudder.
Our Cruise R models come with substantial improvements: The fact that we already supplied the best overall efficiency on the market didn't stop us from going even further. Our new models achieve efficiency rates of 51 %, which means over half of the energy supplied by the batteries is transformed into propulsive power (measured after all losses, including propeller losses). In addition, we have made the motor even more robust.
The Cruise R can stand even a temporary complete submersion under water without taking any harm. Also, we have integrated a GPS receiver and an information system, so you always know how much battery power and remaining range you have. Finally, we made the motor even more powerful. The Cruise 4.0 R has the propulsive power of an 8 horsepower combustion engine in displacement drive and the thrust power of a 9.9 hp outboard motor.
