Sales of outboard engines in the U.S. reached record levels during 2020. Outboard sales increased for the ninth consecutive year in 2020, jumping approximately 34% year-over-year to 329,500 units, the highest annual sales total since 2000, according to the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA).
NMMA also reported that the trend in consumer demand for higher performance engines continued, led by engines 200+ hp outboard motors, which are comparable to the E-Motion™ 180hp. Such outboards account for 27% of total sales.
About Vision Marine Technologies
Vision Marine Technologies, Inc., strives to be a guiding force for change and an ongoing driving factor in fighting the problems associated with waterway pollution by disrupting the traditional boating industry with electric power, in turn directly contributing to zero pollution, zero emission and a noiseless environment. Our flagship outboard powertrain (“E-Motion™”) is the first fully electric purpose-built outboard powertrain system that combines an advanced battery pack, inverter, and high efficiency motor with proprietary union assembly between the transmission and the electric motor design utilizing extensive control software. Our E-Motion™ and related technologies used in this powertrain system are uniquely designed to improve the efficiency of the outboard powertrain and, as a result, enhance both range and performance. Vision Marine continues to design, innovate, manufacture, and sell our handcrafted, high performance, environmentally friendly, electric recreational power boats to customers. The design and technology applied to our boats results in far greater enhanced performance in general, higher speeds, and longer range. Simply stated, our boats provide a smoother ride than a traditional ICE motorboat.
