CXO300
A New Generation in Diesel TechnologyThe CXO300 is a new generation of diesel power. It is a light-weight and robust marine propulsion option that requires 25% less fuel but offers you a 480 torque. Designed to last 3x longer than a gasoline equivalent, this diesel outboard combines exceptional performance, with the reassurance of proven V8 diesel technology.
Designed for purpose
The CXO300 diesel outboard has been designed and built specifically for marine use – the first of its kind. As one of the most powerful diesel outboards brought to the market, the CXO300 has been developed to be compatible with existing industry standards – making it as easy to install on a wide range of vessels as any gasoline outboard. The diesel outboard motor takes standard pump diesel, has a standard outboard fitting layout, and is compatible with all Seastar EPS steering.
The CXO300 is commercially rated, giving you industry assurance, but also has a recreational warranty of 5 years and a commercial warranty of 18 months or 1500 hours.
