Cruise 12.0 FP TorqLink Pod Drive
The Torqeedo Cruise 12.0 FP TorqLink is a premium fixed pod electric drive system engineered for demanding applications on larger sailboats and displacement hulls up to 12 tons. With 12 kW of continuous power—comparable to a 25 HP combustion engine—it offers powerful, clean, and quiet propulsion without the noise, fumes, or maintenance of a gas-powered motor. Ideal for eco-conscious boaters, this motor delivers reliable thrust and efficiency, especially over long distances or in commercial settings.
One of the standout features of the Cruise 12.0 FP is its TorqLink data communication system. This advanced interface ensures seamless integration with other Torqeedo components, such as Power 48-5000 lithium batteries and TorqLink-compatible throttles. TorqLink allows for synchronized performance, easy system configuration, and plug-and-play connectivity, reducing setup complexity and improving reliability across all components.
The motor is built for durability in harsh marine environments, using high-grade, corrosion-resistant materials and offering full waterproof protection to IP67 standards. It includes an onboard computer with GPS, providing real-time readouts of speed, input power, battery status, and estimated range. This data is also compatible with the TorqTrac app for added control and convenience from your mobile device.
The Cruise 12.0 FP supports hydrogeneration when paired with appropriate propeller options, allowing sailors to regenerate battery power under sail. Despite its power, the system remains compact and streamlined, minimizing drag while maximizing performance and efficiency.
Whether you're refitting a large cruising sailboat or outfitting a work vessel for commercial use, the Torqeedo Cruise 12.0 FP TorqLink offers a future-ready electric solution that delivers strength, sustainability, and smart technology in one streamlined package.
