All new for 2026, the Spirit 2 is the next generation of portable, powerful electric outboard motors! Pre orders begin in late November 2025 for delivery in March/April of 2026!

The ePropulsion Spirit 2 electric outboard is a high-performance 2 kW motor engineered for boaters seeking clean, reliable, and efficient propulsion. Its powerful 1539 Wh lithium battery delivers exceptional runtime, silent operation, and zero-emission cruising for dinghies, sailboats, tenders, and fishing boats. Designed for maximum portability, this lightweight electric outboard features a foldable tiller, quick-connect battery, and effortless setup. With advanced features like 3 kW Sport Mode, hydrogeneration, and real-time smart display data, the Spirit 2 offers industry-leading efficiency and control on the water. Perfect for eco-friendly boaters, the Spirit 2 sets a new standard in modern electric boat motors and sustainable marine propulsion.

Powerful 2 kW Electric Outboard with 3 kW Sport Mode

The ePropulsion Spirit 2 is a next-generation 2 kW electric outboard engineered for dinghies, tenders, sailboats, and small cruisers seeking clean, quiet power without sacrificing performance. Delivering the equivalent propulsion of a 5–6 HP gas outboard, the Spirit 2 provides smooth acceleration, instant torque, and whisper-quiet operation—perfect for lakes, bays, harbors, and eco-restricted waterways. Engage the 3 kW Sport Mode when you need short bursts of extra thrust for docking, punching through chop, or maneuvering against currents.

Integrated 1539 Wh Battery for All-Day Runtime

Unlike traditional electric outboards, the Spirit 2 features a fully integrated 1539 Wh lithium battery designed for long-range cruising and maximum energy efficiency. At lower cruising outputs, boaters can expect runtimes up to 3 hours at 500 W and up to 1 hour 48 minutes at 1000 W. The system is highly optimized, offering real-world ranges of up to 21 km (13 miles) depending on boat weight, hull type, and conditions. The battery also supports USB-C device charging, turning the system into a portable onboard power hub for phones, tablets, nav equipment, and fishing electronics.

Advanced Hydrogeneration for Sailing

One of the standout Spirit 2 innovations is its hydrogeneration capability, allowing sailors to recharge the battery while under sail. Generate up to 380 W at 10 knots and up to 1.5 kW at 16 knots, extending cruising range and reducing the need for external charging. This smart regeneration system makes the Spirit 2 ideal for cruising sailboats, tenders for large yachts, and off-grid boating adventures where charging infrastructure is limited.

Lightweight & Portable for Easy Handling

Convenient portability is at the heart of the Spirit 2’s design. With a motor weight starting as low as 10.2 kg (22.5 lbs) and a battery weight of just 10.4 kg (22.9 lbs), the system is incredibly easy to lift, mount, and transport. The foldable tiller handle and detachable clamp bracket simplify storage onboard or in a vehicle. Every detail—from the ergonomic grip to the compact hydrodynamic casing—is built for convenient everyday use.

Smart Display & Intuitive Controls

The full-color display delivers real-time battery levels, power draw, speed, range, and hydrogeneration status. The tilting tiller offers four lockable positions plus a 13.5 cm extension for comfortable steering whether sitting or standing. For added safety, the system includes an emergency magnetic kill-switch key, motor-tilt options, and a shallow-water mode that prevents prop strikes in thin water or when beaching.

Impressive Speed & Range for Real-World Adventures

The Spirit 2 excels across a wide variety of speeds and power outputs. At 500 W, expect 4.0 knots (4.6 mph) and up to 21 km of range. At 1000 W, the motor reaches 5.2 knots (6.0 mph) with a range of up to 15.4 km. At full 2000 W, speeds climb to 9.5 knots (10.9 mph). These performance numbers were measured on an 11.5-foot aluminum boat with one passenger, giving boaters realistic expectations. This combination of speed, stability, and efficiency makes the Spirit 2 suitable for fishing missions, harbor cruising, tender runs, lake outings, and light offshore conditions.

Three Shaft Lengths for Perfect Boat Fit

Matching your outboard to your transom is easy thanks to the Spirit 2’s clear shaft-length recommendations. The Extra Short shaft fits transom heights between 30–40 cm (11.8–15.7 inches) and is tailored to ultra-shallow craft or minimalist tenders. The Short shaft is designed for 40–50 cm (15.7–19.7 inches) transoms, while the Long shaft supports anything above 50 cm (19.7 inches). Combined with multiple trim-angle options (0°, 7°, 14°, and 21°), a 90° steering lock, standard tilt angles (70° / 90°), and a 35° shallow-water tilt, the Spirit 2 integrates seamlessly with a wide array of hull types.

Built for Durability & All-Climate Operation

From hot summers to icy spring mornings, the Spirit 2 is engineered to perform in extreme marine environments. Operating temperatures range from –10°C to 65°C, while charging is supported from –15°C to 60°C using the fast charger for sub-freezing conditions. With 1000-cycle battery life at 80% depth of discharge, owners can expect years of reliable use with minimal maintenance. The sealed motor housing and composite propeller provide durability and corrosion resistance for freshwater and saltwater applications.

Perfect for Dinghies, Sailboats, Fishing Boats & More

Whether you’re powering a dinghy to shore, trolling quietly for fish, or cruising on a lake with no-gas restrictions, the Spirit 2 brings efficiency and versatility to nearly any small craft. Sailors benefit from hydrogeneration, while cruisers gain silent reliability and ease of use. Fishermen appreciate the low-vibration design and ability to run electronics via USB-C. Yacht owners value it as a premium tender motor with straightforward mounting and dependable runtime.

The Future of Clean Boating

With zero emissions, minimal maintenance, advanced battery technology, and a refined user experience, the ePropulsion Spirit 2 is one of the most capable, user-friendly electric outboards in the industry. Ideal for eco-conscious boaters and anyone ready to transition away from petrol engines, the Spirit 2 delivers cutting-edge performance backed by ePropulsion’s decade of innovation in marine electric propulsion.

** This performance data is based on an 11.5-foot aluminum boat weighing 65 kg, with one person and one Spirit battery in calm lake water. Actual speed, range, and running time may vary due to different boat types, loads, weather conditions, and other factors. Sport Mode can last up to 1 minute with a minimum battery state of charge (SOC) of 20%, and the temperature must be within safe limits.

*** The runtime is measured from 100% to 5% SoC. Below 5% SoC, the power will be limited to a maximum of 50 W, enabling the Spirit 2 to continue operating at 50 W for an extended period.
