Minn Kota E-Drive - Electric Outboard - 2Hp - 48V - 20" Shaft Product Description

Imagine gliding across a serene lake at dawn, your pontoon boat slicing through calm waters without a whisper of engine noise or a whiff of exhaust. That's the promise of the Minn Kota E-Drive electric outboard—a game-changer for anglers, pontoon owners, and anyone navigating gasoline-restricted waterways. Delivering the equivalent of 2 horsepower from a clean 48-volt system, this motor propels full-sized boats up to 5 mph, letting you focus on the fish or the family fun instead of fuel hassles.

Seamless Power for Restriction-Free Adventures

Many pristine lakes ban gas motors to preserve their tranquility and ecology. Enter the E-Drive: a zero-emission powerhouse that runs up to two full hours at maximum throttle on a single charge. Its brushless design and efficient power delivery mean longer outings without the refueling stops or storage headaches of traditional outboards. Whether you're trolling for walleye or cruising with friends, this motor integrates effortlessly with your boat's existing controls via a bolt-on transom mount or optional clamp-on setup.

Precision Control at Your Fingertips

The electronic throttle stands out with its intuitive forward, neutral, and reverse positions, plus convenient push-button tilt adjustments. Mount it on your binnacle or cockpit side for easy access, and the included key switch adds peace of mind against unauthorized use. Paired with a dash-mounted tilt gauge, you'll always know your motor's angle for optimal performance and trailering safety. The tilt-lock mechanism secures everything during transport, preventing damage on rough roads.

Smart Battery Management

Stay powered longer with the real-time battery gauge, a backlit display showing remaining runtime, charge level, and throttle output at a glance. Minn Kota's Digital Maximizer technology intelligently rations power, potentially extending your battery life by up to five times compared to non-optimized motors. This means more time on the water and less worry about running dry mid-day.

Rugged Durability Meets Quiet Efficiency

Built for real-world abuse, the E-Drive features high-IP68-rated actuators driven by reliable 12-volt DC motors. They handle submersion and splashes without flinching. The stainless steel propeller, protected by a sacrificial shear pin, shrugs off rocks and logs while a hub-mounted zinc anode battles corrosion in saltwater flirtations or brackish bays. Extra-large windings keep things cool under load, reducing wear and noise to near-silent levels—perfect for stealthy approaches to spooky fish.

Safety and Convenience Features

  • Breakaway Transom Mount: Absorbs impacts from submerged hazards, protecting your investment.
  • Power Tilt: Effortlessly raise or lower the motor with a button, ideal for beaching or shallow drafts.
  • Variable Speed Control: Dial in exactly the pace you need, from slow troll to half-throttle cruise.

E-Drive
Electric Outboard

Minn Kota's powerful E-Drive Electric Outboard motor is perfect for lakes with gasoline restrictions. The quiet 2-hp power plant will move a full-size pontoon boat up to 5 mph with no fumes, no emissions and no messy gasoline. E-Drive can run up to 2 hours at 100% on a single charge, and features a special tilt-lock mechanism for safe and secure trailering. Our bolt-on transom model connects directly to your boat's standard cable linkage, while the clamp-on mount utilizes Tilt Tiller control.

Electronic Throttle Control

Get fingertip control from this ultra-responsive throttle lever, which has forward/neutral/reverse positions and push-button tilt up/down. It mounts either on the binnacle or side mount at the cockpit, and features a key switch for added safety.

Bolt-on Transom Mount

Our standard E-Drive motor features a bolt-on transom bracket. The bracket includes a power tilt mechanism and a built-in breakaway mount that protects the motor from underwater hazards.

Tilt Gauge

Dash-mounted tilt gauge provides an instant readout of motor position.

Minn Kota Actuators

E-Drive models are powered by intelligently designed actuators with 12V DC motors. They operate smoothly, quietly and dependably, and also feature the industry's highest IP68 waterproof rating.

Realtime Battery Gauge

Instantly see how many hours of run time you have left on your battery with this real time, back-lit gauge. It also features a fuel gauge showing battery condition, as well as throttle power level.

Stainless Steel Prop

A special sheer pin protects this stainless steel prop from damage when encountering underwater obstacles. The prop also features a replaceable, hub-mounted zinc anode to fight galvanic corrosion.

Digital Maximizer

Digital Maximizer™ controls and optimizes power to extend battery life and reduce damaging heat. You'll stay on the water up to five times longer on a single charge.

Cool, Quiet Power

Nothing runs cooler or more quietly than a Minn Kota. Our extra large winding's and commutators dissipate heat, resulting in cooler operation, extended battery power, and longer motor life. And our unique bearing system reduces friction to cut fish-spooking noise. So quiet, they'll never hear you coming.
