Mercury Marine named 2024 CES Innovation Award honoree for Avator™ 20e and 35e electric outboards
15 Noviembre 2023 - 5:10PM
Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC), today announced its Mercury
Marine division was named a 2024 Consumer Electronics Show (CES)
Innovation Award honoree in the Sustainability, Eco-Design &
Smart Energy category for the Avator 20e and 35e electric
outboards. This is the third CES Innovation Award for Mercury. In
2022, Mercury’s V12 600hp Verado outboard engine won the award in
the Vehicle & Transportation category, and in 2021, Mercury’s
1st Mate Marine System technology won in two categories, earning
the Best of Innovation designation in the In-Vehicle Entertainment
& Safety category and the CES Innovation Award honor in the
Vehicle Intelligence & Transportation category.
Mercury introduced the Avator 20e and 35e electric propulsion
systems in August and both will be part of Brunswick’s CES exhibit
at the 2024 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas as part of the
Company’s celebration of its ACES technology and leadership in
electrification. The two award-winning models joined the already
award-winning Avator 7.5e outboard, which officially launched at
CES 2023. Two additional electric outboard products will be
unveiled in the coming weeks as Mercury Marine advances its
commitment to be the leader in marine electric
propulsion.
“We are thrilled to be recognized with a CES Innovation Award
for a third time,” said Dave Foulkes, Brunswick Corporation CEO.
“Avator outboards are industry-leading, innovative electric
propulsion systems engineered to deliver a superior boating
experience, and this award is another testament to our continued
leadership position in marine technology. Our CES exhibit
will be a celebration of our unmatched technology portfolio and a
wonderful opportunity for a global audience to experience how our
ACES strategy has come to life.”
“It is an incredible honor for Mercury Marine to win another CES
Innovation Award, one of the premier innovation awards in the
world,” said John Buelow, Mercury Marine president. “The 20e and
35e outboards set new benchmarks for innovation, performance, and
connectivity. We look forward to showcasing our Avator lineup in
the Brunswick exhibit at CES 2024, giving attendees the opportunity
to see how we are making boating accessible to more people, while
building on our commitment to sustainability.”
The 20e can produce similar acceleration to a 5hp FourStroke
outboard, while the 35e is capable of producing similar
acceleration to a Mercury 9.9hp FourStroke outboard. The outboards
feature industry-first, transverse-flux motor technology, a vivid
full-color intuitive display and an ambidextrous tiller handle. Up
to four of Mercury’s new 2300Wh lithium-ion batteries, developed in
partnership with the Navico Group’s Mastervolt team, can be
connected and managed through the exclusive Power Center. The
outboards offer full access to the Mercury Marine app with the
integrated SmartCraft® Connect module. The 20e and 35e are ideal
for powering small vessels, including aluminum fishing boats, micro
skiffs, rigid inflatables, tenders, and small pontoons.
