Torqeedo Cruise 3.0 TS 6HP Equivalent – Electric 25″ Shaft Tiller

Torqeedo Cruise 3.0 TS Electric Tiller (6HP Equiv.)

The Torqeedo Cruise 3.0 TS is an ultra-portable 3 kW electric outboard engineered for peak performance on small skiffs and tenders requiring 6HP gasoline equivalent thrust. Built on a robust 24V TorqLink platform and weighing only 43 lbs, this unit offers a superior power-to-weight ratio for the North American maritime market. This 25-inch shaft model integrates an ergonomic tiller control and an on-board GPS computer, providing the tactical authority needed for small boats requiring professional marine outboard power with zero emissions and immediate electric torque.

Operational performance is maintained via a 3.0 kW input power system, delivering 1.5 kW of propulsive power for agile vessel control and steady harbor navigation. The integrated TorqLink data bus ensures the motor works in total harmony with Torqeedo’s Power-series lithium batteries, providing a seamless digital experience. This engine exemplifies German engineering reliability for saltwater use, ensuring the corrosion-resistant housing protects critical electronics while providing the refined, vibration-free experience that serious boaters expect.

Short Shaft Electric Authority

The Cruise 3.0 technology leverages its electric torque curve to provide explosive acceleration compared to traditional outboards. This sophisticated design ensures the engine works efficiently across the power band, providing the mechanical integrity needed for harbor transit while maintaining reliable marine motor systems standards for captains navigating environmentally sensitive coastal waterways.

Clean Power Advantage

Utilizing a compact 24V battery bank, the Cruise 3.0 TS eliminates the need for gasoline storage on board, significantly reducing fire risks and chemical odors. The digital energy management system is exact, providing the security of real-time range data for captains who depend on their motor for safe harbor navigation and professional coastal maneuvering in the North American maritime sector.

Torqeedo 2-Year Warranty

The Torqeedo Cruise 3.0 is backed by a 2-Year Warranty for private use. This protection covers the motor and TorqLink digital systems, ensuring access to certified technical support and reflecting a deep commitment to sustainable maritime longevity and professional auxiliary engineering.

Maintenance & Longevity

Electric propulsion eliminates the need for winterization and complex seasonal mechanical maintenance. Freshwater flushing of the motor pylon and propeller is essential after every excursion to prevent salt buildup. Pro Tip from the Shop: Regularly grease the steering pivot and check the sacrificial anodes daily to protect the aluminum housing from galvanic corrosion during extended boat use.
