Torqeedo Cruise 4.0 RS / Cruise 4.0 RL — 8HP Electric Outboard | Efficient, Clean Power for Modern Boaters
Torqeedo 8HP Cruise 4.0 RS/RL (1232-00) and Cruise 4.0 RS (1233-00)
The new models of the Cruise 4.0 have been improved to meet the demanding challenges of everyday commercial use; making them ready to take on the harshest environmental conditions, for example with dinghies and sailboats up to 4 tons.
The Torqeedo 8HP Cruise 4.0 RS/RL delivers the equivalent power of an 8HP gasoline outboard, offering clean, quiet, and fuel-free performance for eco-minded boaters. Designed for sailboats, inflatables, tenders, fishing boats, and small cruisers, this premium electric outboard provides strong thrust, exceptional efficiency, and reliable long-range capability when paired with Torqeedo’s advanced lithium batteries.
Built with a rugged, corrosion-resistant design and a high-efficiency motor, the Cruise 4.0 is engineered for harsh marine environments—freshwater and saltwater alike. It’s perfect for lake boating, electric-only water zones, and anyone seeking a low-maintenance, environmentally friendly propulsion solution.
This makes the Cruise even more rugged in the event that it runs aground and even better protected against corrosion when used extensively in salt water.
The Cruise 4.0 is comparable to a 8 HP petrol outboard and can be easily mounted on your boat with a couple of tools, regardless of whether the remote or tiller version.
A power supply from at least two lithium batteries (Power 26-104) or with lead batteries (lead-gel or AGM) must be provided for operation.
At Boat Parts Warehouse, we ship Torqeedo outboards worldwide with fast, secure delivery.

Information on range and speed Torqeedo 8HP Cruise 4.0 RS/RL
For a displacement boat making way through the water, the required propulsive power increases in proportion to the cube of the speed. This means that if you want to double your speed, you need eight times as much power.
And vice-versa, a small reduction in speed is enough to increase the achievable range substantially.
The Torqeedo Cruise’s onboard computer calculates the remaining range constantly, by linking the motor’s consumption data with the charging level of the batteries, and the speed over the ground from the GPS. This allows you to read the remaining range in real time from the motor display or the smartphone app TorqTrac.
