ePropulsion Outboards

Spirit Series

The Spirit Series is all about portability without sacrificing power. Ideal for dinghies, tenders, and sailboats, the Spirit line now spans 1 kW to 2 kW. The Spirit 1.0 delivers 1 kW (3 HP) from a 10.6 kg motor; the Spirit 2 doubles that to 2 kW while the motor itself stays at 10.2 kg. The extra weight sits in the battery, not the powerhead. Their compact design makes them the go-to choice for portable electric motors among boaters who frequently switch between vessels.

Spirit 1.0 Evo Tiller & Remote

• 1 kW (3 HP) continuous output
• 1,276 Wh battery for up to 55 min at full throttle
• Digital display with runtime and battery level
• Remote control option for hands-free steering

Spirit 1.0 Plus

• Enhanced 1 kW output with improved torque
• Quick-connect battery pack (8.7 kg)
• Tiller steering and ergonomic handle

Spirit 2 (Tiller & Remote)

• 2 kW continuous, with a 3 kW Boost Mode on the tiller version
• 1,539 Wh quick-connect battery – roughly 20 percent more capacity than the Spirit 1.0 Evo pack
• 20.6 to 21 kg for motor and battery together, depending on shaft length
• Hydrogeneration recharges the pack under sail
• Type-C outlet on the battery for a fish finder, phone or deck lights
• Tiller and remote versions, each sold with or without the battery

See shaft lengths and package options on the ePropulsion Spirit 2 product page.

eLite and kLite Series

Below the Spirit sits a pair of grab-and-go motors with the battery built into the housing. The eLite 500W weighs 6.7 kg in the short-shaft version and carries a 378 Wh battery good for about 45 minutes at full power, or closer to 1.5 hours at half throttle around 6 km/h. It recharges in four hours and suits canoes, small tenders and dinghies where even a Spirit is more motor than the job needs.

The kLite 750 uses the same 378 Wh cell in a kayak-specific package: motor and battery in one 6.5 kg unit, 500 W continuous with a 750 W Sport Mode for short bursts. It mounts on motor-ready fishing kayaks rather than a conventional transom.

A third model is on the way. The kMax 2200 separates motor from battery and steps up to 2.2 kW, running on modular 48V LiFePO4 packs of 1,024 Wh each – up to four in parallel for 4,096 Wh, at 11 kg per pack. A single pack charges in about two hours. ePropulsion expects it in spring 2027 and is aiming it at large, heavily rigged fishing kayaks, not lightweight recreational hulls.

Navy Series

For anglers and waterfront professionals, the Navy Series steps up to 3 kW (6 HP) and 6 kW (9.9 HP) outputs. These electric marine motors are built on a robust aluminum housing, offering:

• Optimized weight distribution for stable handling
• Deep-cycle LFP batteries that charge fast and last long
• Integrated cooling for extended high-load operation

Models include the Navy 3.0 Evo (3 kW) and Navy 6.0 Evo (6 kW), both perfect for aluminum fishing boats, pontoons, and work tenders.

Pod Drive Series

Innovative pod drive technology brings thruster-style steering and inboard-style performance to smaller craft. With a sleek, hydrodynamic pod, these motors slot neatly under your hull, reducing drag and noise. Pod Drive is ideal for:

• Electric-powered sailboats seeking auxiliary thrust
• Small cruisers looking for inboard efficiency without fuel

X-Series

When zero-emission power meets industrial strength, you get the X-Series. Available in 12 kW, 20 kW, and 40 kW variants, these high-output engines turn your larger vessels into eco-friendly workhorses. Highlights include:

• Industry-leading 88.2% powertrain efficiency
• Fully integrated design – no external controllers or mounting brackets
• Remote diagnostics via Bluetooth and mobile app

Choosing the Right ePropulsion Outboard Motor

Selecting the perfect electric outboards for your vessel means balancing power, runtime, and convenience. Here’s what to consider:

Power Output

Match the motor’s continuous output (kW or HP) to your boat size and load. For light tenders and sailboats, 1 kW is often enough; medium-sized fishing boats may benefit from 3–6 kW, while larger pontoons and workboats typically require 12 kW or more.

Battery Life and Capacity

Run time depends on battery capacity (Wh) and discharge rate. Spirit batteries (1–1.3 kWh) typically deliver 45–60 minutes at full throttle, while Navy Series packs (3–5 kWh) extend runtime to multiple hours at moderate speeds. All ePropulsion batteries recharge quickly on standard 110V or 220V outlets. Prefer to skip separate packs entirely? The eLite and kLite build a 378 Wh cell into the motor housing, so there is nothing to connect, carry or forget on the dock.

Portability

For weekend warriors and multi-boat owners, portable electric motors are a game-changer. Spirit models weigh under 12 kg, making them easy to carry, install, and swap between vessels. Even larger batteries include ergonomic handles to simplify handling.

Control Options

You have three simple ways to steer your ePropulsion motor. Use the tiller handle for straightforward, hands-on control. Opt for the wireless remote if you’d rather move freely around the deck. Or choose the pod drive setup, which integrates with your helm, allowing your boat to handle just like it has an inboard engine.

Advanced Features

ePropulsion motors are packed with helpful extras:

• A clear digital panel that keeps you up to speed on your speed, battery charge, and run time.
• The Bluetooth connection allows you to monitor performance and install firmware updates directly from your phone.
• A magnetic safety switch that immediately stops the motor if you fall overboard.
• An eco-mode setting that adjusts power output for the longest possible run on a single charge.

FAQ on ePropulsion Outboards

Are ePropulsion outboards suitable for saltwater?

Yes. ePropulsion designs its outboards with marine-grade aluminum and corrosion-resistant seals, making them durable in both freshwater and saltwater environments. Rinse with fresh water after each use for optimal longevity.

How long do ePropulsion batteries last on a single charge?

Runtime varies by series and throttle setting. The 378 Wh eLite and kLite run about 45 minutes at full power and roughly 1.5 hours at half throttle. Spirit 1.0 packs (1,276 Wh) give close to an hour wide open, and the Spirit 2 battery (1,539 Wh) extends that by about 20 percent. Navy Series packs (3–5 kWh) deliver 2–3 hours at moderate speeds. Halve your throttle and you will typically more than double your time on the water.

Can ePropulsion outboards be charged with solar power?

Absolutely. Pair your ePropulsion battery with a marine solar panel array and MPPT charge controller to top off your pack during the day – ideal for remote adventures where shore power isn’t available.

What maintenance is required for an ePropulsion outboard?

ePropulsion motors are low-maintenance compared to gas engines. Regularly rinse the lower unit in freshwater, check battery connections, and charge the batteries after each trip. Annual inspections of seals and propellers are recommended.

How much does an ePropulsion outboard cost in Canada?

ePropulsion outboards at M-Oceans start under $2,000 CAD for the compact battery-integrated models and run past $23,000 CAD for the largest X-Series. Mid-range Spirit and Navy motors sit between roughly $4,000 and $6,000 CAD depending on shaft length and whether the battery is included. Current prices for every model are listed in the product grid above, and financing is available on larger systems.
