THE Tohatsu range of four-stroke outboard engines has continued to grow in recent years with many innovative designs. This year will see the launch of the new high torque 75-90-100-115hp four-strokes, featuring Tohatsu’s “4-2-1”- Performance Tuned Exhaust.
Tohatsu introduced this technology to minimise displacement and maximise performance. Tohatsu says its new mid range outboards have best-in-class torque to weight ratio, strong acceleration and top end speed to top it off. For the everyday boat user, the result simply makes the boating experience easier. More torque means a smoother transition to plane, less drag and strong responsive acceleration.
Durability has also been improved, undertaking 30,000 hours of run time with countless field tests across the world in a variety of conditions. Tohatsu says each and every component was tested to ensure it meets the highest standard. Additionally, fuel efficiency, quietness, environmental factors and serviceability were built into the new engines.
The new models feature the Tohatsu Onboard Communication System (TOCS) to transmit engine management data, a handy visible water drain fuel filter, an auto style oil filter drip catch tray, auto tensioning timing belt adjuster and the easy fresh water flush system to name a few. For those looking for hands-on control in a modern mid-size unit, a new large multi-function tiller unit will be available upgraded with ergonomic controls and trim switch built into the grip.
