20 hp electric boat motor by Elco

In the ever-evolving world of marine technology, few names stand as tall as Elco. With over a century of experience behind every innovation, Elco has always been more than a boat motor company. We’re stewards of the water, pioneers of propulsion, and unwavering advocates for cleaner, quieter, smarter boating. Our latest lineup of electric motors represents the next chapter in a long tradition of building not just what boaters need today, but what they’ll rely on tomorrow.

Ready for Tomorrow. Reliable Today.

When you choose an Elco electric outboard or inboard motor, you’re investing in peace of mind. These are motors built to last, battle-tested through rigorous internal evaluations that go far beyond the standards of the industry. Why? Because we believe the end-consumer deserves to know their equipment won’t just perform on day one – it will continue to deliver, season after season.

We know your time on the water is precious. That’s why we’ve engineered motors that start instantly, run cleanly, and require virtually no maintenance. From the brushless design to our advanced battery integration, everything we make is built with reliability at the core.

Future-Proof Your Boating Experience

Battery technology is evolving at a rapid pace. At Elco, we’re not just keeping up – we’re innovating ahead. Our motors are built to integrate with a wide variety of battery systems, giving you flexibility now and into the future. As batteries grow more powerful, more efficient, and more affordable, your Elco motor is ready to take full advantage of those advances.

That means no expensive replacements or workarounds. No need to scrap your investment in a few years. Just dependable, forward-compatible performance that keeps getting better over time.

No One Tests Like Elco

We don’t guess. We test. Every Elco motor goes through rigorous field and lab testing designed to simulate real-world usage at its toughest. From saltwater spray to long-range endurance runs, our engineering team pushes every component to its limit. Because if it can’t survive our testing, it doesn’t belong on your boat.

The result? Motors that outperform expectations and prove their strength in conditions where others falter. Our testing isn’t about marketing. It’s about accountability.

Personalized Power: Fit the Right Motor to Your Boat

Electric motors aren’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why our team is here to help you select the perfect fit for your vessel, your lifestyle, and your goals. Whether you’re navigating a peaceful lake, cruising a coastal bay, or upgrading a family sailboat, we make sure you get the right power, battery capacity, and performance profile without upselling you into more than you need.

Talk to us. We’re boaters too, and we’ll help you get the most out of your time on the water.

More of What You Want. None of What You Don’t.

  • Clean starts with zero exhaust.
