Mercury Marine Expands Verado Outboard Lineup
Mercury Marine recently expanded its Verado outboard lineup with the introduction of the all-new V10 425-horsepower Verado outboard and a performance-enhanced version of the V10 350-horsepower Verado outboard.
Both models set new benchmarks for performance in the high-horsepower outboard segment, delivering exceptional power, acceleration, and fuel efficiency while continuing Mercury’s legacy for smoothness and quiet operation.
The new 425-horsepower model delivers class-leading acceleration and significant weight advantages compared to a 450-horsepower competitor. In Mercury’s testing, it was:
♦ 3 seconds faster from 0-30 mph than a 450hp competitor (on a 26-foot, 5,000-pound center-console boat with a heavy load)
♦ 254 pounds lighter than a 450hp competitor (25-inch XL models)
♦ Equipped with a 150-amp alternator – the highest output in its class
♦ 22% quieter at cruise than a 450hp competitor
The upgraded 350-horsepower model delivers impressive improvements in top-end speed and mid-range acceleration:
♦ 7 mph higher top speed than a 350hp competitor (light load test configuration)
♦ 4 seconds faster from 0-30 mph and 17.8 seconds faster from 0 to top speed than a 350hp competitor (heavy load test configuration)
♦ Four times the alternator output at cruise compared to a 350hp competitor
♦ 40% quieter at cruise than a 350hp competitor
♦ 15% quicker 0-50 mph acceleration than Mercury’s current 350hp model thanks to enhanced mid-range torque
Built on Mercury’s compact V10 platform, both engines offer 26-inch center-to-center mounting, making them ideal for repowering boats originally rigged with L6 Verado or competitive outboards.
Digital Throttle & Shift is standard on the new 425 hp and enhanced 350 hp Verado outboards, which also offer available Joystick Piloting for exceptional control and precision.
