The complete system with a 126kWh battery bank weighs in at 1100kg, 500kg less than the first-generation engine. In addition to improved technical specifications, the latest generation of the Hurricane has been redesigned to further reduce its weight, making it more compact and easier to install. The new generation of the Hurricane comes with a new cooling system that allows it to run in warmer seas than the Baltic. Light and low, this engine will fit below deck.Ĭompared to a diesel engine, there is little to an electric motor. However, with electric boating still in its infancy, you have to embrace the concept that you will need to go slower if you want to go further, or you will have to recharge frequently and run the boat locally. This, of course, does not stack up against something like a 400hp Volvo D6 feeding off an 80-gallon fuel tank, which will likely cover 250 miles at the same speed. The Goldfish can cover around 30nm at 40 knots with just two 63kWh batteries and has a 55-knot top speed. The first installation has been tested in the Goldfish X9, with whom Evoy are closely associated. A robust 800V system offers up to 800hp in short-term peak power mode, with a continuous maximum rating of 400hp. The plug and play set-up is easy to install, and it can be fitted to any new boat or retrofit. This electric inboard motor is a forward step for the electric boat market. This price includes two 400kg 63kWh batteries, so if you discount the cost of future recharging, you have pretty much bought your fuel upfront for many years to come. This is a hefty chunk of money to fork out to go green, but there are things to consider when stacking the Hurricane up against its fossil fuel competition. This is providing you are happy with its 147,000-euro price tag. Now Evoy’s Hurricane electric inboard in the latest Gen 2 form is a reality for the commercial and pleasure boat sectors. We reported on the 150hp Evoy electric outboard earlier this year, when the launch of their inboard range was imminent. In yachting, large monohulls, catamarans and riverboats are in the Chinese manufacturer's sights.Fitted in the Goldfish X9, the most powerful production electric motor is ready for production. ePropulsion says it wants to focus more on the aftermarket and be able to equip boats from 60 to 100 feet, with a load displacement up to 200 tons. While the power of ePropulsion's outboard engines was mainly aimed at small boats and the aftermarket, the new H100 inboard engine opens new markets. Aiming for the big boats in the first place When used with ePropulsion's HC-160-54 controller, the H100 will be able to use DC power directly and will not require the addition of an inverter onboard the boat. The "Syn" mode facilitates the management of the incoming power in case of double H-100 on the boat.
The modular system developed by the brand allows to consider double installations for more power.Ī "docking" mode allows you to manage the torque and control the boat at low speed. The ePropulsion H-100 inboard develops 100kW and a maximum torque of 2,000 Nm. The power of this new model is in contrast to the limited outboard motors, which range from 1 to 6 kW. The electric motor manufacturer announced on the creation of a new inboard motor offering with the launch of the H-100 as the first model to be officially presented at the Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo. Their gray and blue motors have found a home on a number of transoms. Since 2012, the Chinese brand ePropulsion has built a significant line of electric outboard motors.
