Expanded Evinrude E-TEC line-up

BRP adds Evinrude E-TEC 90 H.O. and 135 H.O, plus fresh graphics package

Bombardier Recreational Products (BRP) has just released the new Evinrude E-TEC outboard engines, creating an updated look across the entire E-TEC line-up by using new graphics and a new graphite colour.

The latest horsepower available in the new Evinrude E-TEC outboard engine line-up are the 90 H.O and the 135 H.O.

Like all Evinrude E-TEC H.O. models, the 90 H.O. is intended to outperform the competition, producing 10 percent more than its decal rating, and is intended to outperform any competitive 90hp offering, says BRP.

The Evinrude E-TEC 135 H.O. provides superior value and a real choice for power and performance in the popular 100-150hp segment.

BEST-IN-CLASS FEATURES

>> More Low End Torque -- a two-stroke design provides up to 36 percent more torque than competitive same HP 4-strokes

>> 1.7 (90hp) & 2.6 (135hp) Litres of Displacement -- a V4/ V6 cylinder engine with more displacement means more torque, more low-end power and more top-end speed.

>> 90 H.O provides increased torque for quicker acceleration, and higher top speed than the competition, featuring 13 percent more displacement than the Mercury OptiMax 90hp and 8 percent more than the Yamaha 4-stroke.

>> Lightweight Design – 90 H.O. – 4kg (9lbs) lighter than a 90hp Mercury outboard, providing improved fuel efficiency, better handling and superior visibility while planning, as well as less stress on the structural integrity of a boat’s transom.135 H.O. – At 189kg (418lbs), the 135 H.O. offers the best power-to-weight ratio in the industry and allows for better fuel efficiency, less draft, better handling and less stress on the boat structure

>> True High Output Alternator -- With more than twice the total output of competitors, the 90 & 135 H.O. will deliver enough power to run all of today’s outboard electronics with less chance of a dead battery

>> Multi-Point Oiling System -- Oil is injected at multiple points (crankcase and cylinder block), dramatically improving lubrication at slow speeds and increasing engine life

>> Clean Technology -- The 90 H.O &135 H.O. have maximum power allowed, but still maintains a 3-Star CARB clean emission rating from the EPA and can deliver as much as three times better fuel economy at idle speeds than competitive 4-stroke models

GAME CHANGERS

“We are extremely proud of the performance and value of the Evinrude E-TEC 90 H.O.,” said Chris Dawson, Vice President and General Manager of BRP’s International division. “By offering quicker hole shots, better throttle response and higher top speed than the competition, the 90 H.O. is a game-changer in the 90hp segment.”

“Whether it's freshwater fishing, pontoons, bay and flats or inshore and offshore saltwater applications, the 135 H.O. will fit most every type of boating activity in this HP segment,” said Karl Sandstrom, Product Manager for BRP’s Outboard Engine Division. “Specifically engineered to push the HP limits, the Evinrude E-TEC 135 H.O. is ideal for boaters who want maximum power and performance, and it easily excels against competitive 100-150hp outboard engines.”

With a factory-backed, five-year non-declining warranty and three years or 300 hours with no dealer scheduled maintenance, the 90 H.O &135 H.O. are factory-tuned for high performance applications. They are available in four configurations -- 20” white, 20” blue, 25” white and 25” white counter rotation (only in 135 H.O.)

ALL NEW GRAPHICS AND GRAPHITE MODELS

The Evinrude E-TEC line-up of outboard engines has also received an updated look in the form of an all-new graphics package. These new graphics are featured on all Evinrude E-TEC models, including the popular H.O. series.

Furthermore, due to popular demand, Evinrude has launched a Graphite colour that is offered to five different models. Select offerings are available in 150 H.O, 200 H.O, 225 H.O, 250 H.O and 300 H.O sizes.

The new graphite series is ideal for consumers who demand a dark, natural-coloured engine to complement their boat hulls and interiors.

BRP's Evinrude engine line-up from 3.5 to 300 horsepower offers customers superior value across a full range of applications. Engines are available at authorised Evinrude dealerships worldwide.
