Yamaha Motor is pleased to announce that it will be exhibiting a prototype hydrogen-powered outboard motor based on their flagship 5.6L 450hp V8 model at the Miami International Boat Show in February next year! The water resistance marine products are subjected to means they require significantly more energy for propulsion than land vehicles, and performance and engineering requirements for marine products can vary widely depending on the usage environment as well as the usage itself.

In order to achieve carbon neutrality with marine products while facing such challenges, Yamaha Motor is promoting a multi-directional development approach, looking to other new energy sources and technologies in addition to its electrification efforts, and hydrogen-powered engines constitute one of these directions.
