Experience with the Pod 6.0 EVO
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Price-performance ratio is right!
Janusz Kutkowski from CANNA Boats
The ePropulsion Pod 6.0 EVO is currently simply the pod motor with the most coherent price-performance ratio for motor and batteries. The installation and commissioning was easy, the motor is quiet and provides sufficient thrust.
We have had bad experiences with other manufacturers and have therefore switched. Ideally, a more stylish and functional display would be perfect for our boat. We have integrated a multifunctional touch display using a shunt and made the pod rotatable.
Safety with the ePropulsion Pod Drive 6 EVO
-
The pod propulsion system is perfect for motorboats, sailboats, and daysailers.
-
Housing and connector are waterproof according to IP 67.
-
An integrated protection mechanism stops the motor or reduces speed if the Drive 6.0 EVO encounters resistance underwater.
-
Emergency stop magnet chip on the remote control - when removed from the throttle, the electric motor stops immediately.
-
Integrated LCD display provides precise information about the battery and runtime.
-
Battery alarm: An acoustic warning signal informs you about a low battery status

Pod motor for sailboats - Comfort in operation
-
The control is possible thanks to the comfortable remote control forward and backward. Communication takes place via an integrated 3.5 inch compact module.
-
Infinitely variable control of the speed using the wireless Bluetooth control. One push is enough to start the electrically powered motor.
-
The controller is not included in the delivery. You have the choice between a top-mounted gas lever including display and a laterally mountable variant with a separate display.
-
The installation should be carried out by a professional.
6.0 EVO Pod Motor - Technology
-
Very quiet - under 60dB! The electric motor is therefore significantly quieter than combustion engines.
-
Thanks to the high efficiency of the high-quality, brushless DC motor, the motor achieves an overall efficiency of 50%.
-
Maintenance-free for life. The drives are designed for continuous use underwater. Only the anodes need to be checked annually.
-
If necessary, a folding propeller can be used. Recuperation only works with the standard propeller and with the ePropulsion E-Series batteries.
Pod 6.0 EVO Podmotor - Battery Range
Travel time and range depend mainly on the boat (weight and length) and the battery. In combination with an E175 battery with a total of ~9 kWh, we achieved the following speeds and ranges in the test with a 30-foot sailboat:
Under full load with the ePorpulsion Pod 6.0 EVO, the batteries last about 1.5 hours in operation. In the test at 12.9 km/h, a range of 19.2 km can be achieved.
At half load of 3 kW, we were able to drive for a total of 3 hours. Speed of 10.5 km/h and a range of about 31 km.
Those who plan longer and more comfortable tours on the water can go much further with less power. At partial load (1,000 W), one battery charge lasts around 9 hours. With the E175, a range of ~70 km is realistic.
Battery of the ePropulsion Pod 6.0 EVO pod motor
Thanks to the uniform voltage of 48V, you can easily bring your desired battery on board. This allows batteries to be connected in parallel and combined. Please note our instructions regarding the batteries used and sufficient storage space.
The lithium-ion battery can also be quickly made roadworthy depending on the charger. The charger should be chosen depending on the desired battery size. We are happy to support you here in our free telephone consultation or with our digital advisor.
The manufacturer ePropulsion - electric pod drives
ePropulsion is an innovative manufacturer of electric drives with the aim of further advancing e-mobility in water sports. The idea was conceived in 2012 by four young engineers in Hong Kong. With the goal of making environmentally friendly, clean and quiet motors competitive, they have since designed numerous models, such as the Spirit 1.0 or the Navy 3.0. The motors have a top price-performance ratio.
EPropulsion pod motors - Miscellaneous
ePropulsion Technology Limited produces electric boat drives without gears and with a high-quality brushless DC motor. The motors are therefore extremely quiet and low-maintenance. ePropulsion offers boat motors with a wide range of functions such as GPS. Of course, suitable lithium-ion batteries and chargers are also available in the range.
The motors in elegant design in combination with the powerful batteries ensure long-lasting performance. They are easy to handle, safe and technically up to date. They are therefore ideal for getting started with e-mobility on the water.
