The ePropulsion X12 is a high-power electric outboard in the X-Series, designed around a 96 V electrical platform and 12 kW of input power. Its compact integrated design combines electric steering, power trim and tilt, the motor system and electronic controls into the outboard assembly. The X12 is offered in S- and L-shaft configurations for different transom heights.
ePropulsion positions the X-Series as a zero-emission electric propulsion range with an integrated architecture intended to simplify installation and make better use of stern space. The X12 is the 12 kW model in the range, below the X20 and X40 in rated input power.
The X12 provides 12 kW of input power on a nominal 96 VDC platform. ePropulsion’s current X-Series specifications list the X12 alongside the 20 kW X20 and 40 kW X40 models.
The motor specification for the X12 lists a maximum power of 12,000 W, a minimum power of 100 W, and a maximum turbo power of 16,000 W. The X12-L product record also lists 1,750 N of static thrust and 86% motor efficiency.
One of the defining features of the X-Series is its integrated architecture. ePropulsion combines the electric steering system, trim and tilt, electronic control components and propulsion system into a compact outboard package. This removes the need for a separate external steering mechanism and can help preserve usable space around the stern.
The X12 measures approximately 560 mm long by 266 mm wide. Overall height depends on the shaft configuration: approximately 978 mm for the S shaft and 1105 mm for the L shaft.
The X12 incorporates electric steering directly into the propulsion system. ePropulsion lists a steering angle of ±45°, giving the outboard a wide steering range for maneuvering and low-speed boat handling.
An integrated steering system can simplify installation compared with an outboard that requires separate external steering hardware. The exact helm controls, communication components and wiring should be selected according to the X-Series system configuration.
The X12 includes integrated electric power trim and tilt. ePropulsion specifies a trim and tilt range from -4° to 61°. This allows the motor position to be adjusted for different operating conditions, including launching, shallow-water positioning and underway trim adjustment.
Proper trim can affect acceleration, handling, propeller immersion and efficiency. Operators should follow the ePropulsion installation and operating instructions for the appropriate trim position for their hull.
The X12 is available in S and L shaft versions. The S shaft measures 381 mm (15 inches), while the L shaft measures 508 mm (20 inches). Choosing the correct shaft length is important because the motor and propeller need to sit at the correct depth relative to the boat’s transom.
| Configuration | S Shaft | L Shaft |
|---|---|---|
| Shaft length | 381 mm / 15 in | 508 mm / 20 in |
| Overall dimensions | 560 × 266 × 978 mm | 560 × 266 × 1105 mm |
| Published motor weight | 48 kg* | 50 kg* |
*ePropulsion’s current product database lists 48 kg for the X12-S and 50 kg for the X12-L. Other ePropulsion catalog material lists slightly different weights depending on the stated equipment exclusions, so confirm the shipping and installed weight for the exact configuration before planning lifting or mounting equipment.
ePropulsion lists several propeller choices for the X12. Current X-Series information includes an 11 13/16 × 10 5/8 inch propeller and an 11 7/16 × 14 3/16 inch option, while ePropulsion’s published catalog also lists an 11 13/16 × 9 13/16 inch option for the X12. Propeller availability and the correct specification depend on the motor configuration and intended application.
Propeller selection should be made using ePropulsion’s compatibility information rather than simply choosing a propeller by diameter or pitch. Propeller choice affects acceleration, cruising performance, load carrying and efficiency.
The ePropulsion X-Series overview currently lists natural cooling for the X12, while an individual X12 product record currently describes the motor with a closed-loop liquid-cooling specification. Because these official ePropulsion sources differ, the cooling specification should be confirmed against the exact X12 revision and configuration being supplied before publication as a definitive installation specification.
The X12 product records list a maximum motor efficiency of 86% and static thrust of 1,750 N. These figures describe the motor specification and should not be interpreted as a guaranteed boat-level efficiency or performance figure.
ePropulsion’s published performance data gives an example of X12 operation at different power levels. At 3 kW input, the published test result is 14.5 km/h with 3 hours 20 minutes of runtime and 48.3 km of range. At 6 kW, the example reaches 20.4 km/h with 1 hour 40 minutes of runtime and 34 km of range. At 12 kW, the example reaches 30.1 km/h with 50 minutes of runtime and 25.1 km of range.
These figures come from a defined test setup: an 11-foot aluminum-hull inflatable boat with one person, one X12 and one G102-100 battery, with a total boat weight of approximately 320 kg, tested in calm lake water. Actual speed and range can vary substantially with hull design, load, water conditions, propeller, battery capacity and operating style.
The X12 is part of ePropulsion’s modular electric propulsion architecture and requires a compatible battery and control system. The manufacturer’s X-Series documentation lists the G102-100 and G102-230 batteries within the X-Series ecosystem. System components should be matched using ePropulsion’s current wiring, battery and control requirements.
The X12 product record identifies an ESSA communication system, a 250 A bus box and a G battery output cable kit among the supplied components for the motor configuration. Exact included components can vary by part number, so buyers should verify the package contents for the specific X12 SKU being ordered.
The X12 supports ePropulsion’s connected electric propulsion architecture. The manufacturer describes the X-Series as including advanced driving-assistance functions and ePropulsion Link connectivity service. This architecture is designed to connect propulsion, battery and control information across the system.
Connectivity features and available displays depend on the installed system components. Confirm the required display, helm controls, communication cables and battery components before ordering a complete propulsion package.
The X12 can be considered for boats requiring a substantially higher power level than small portable electric outboards. Its 12 kW platform, integrated steering and power trim/tilt make it suitable for appropriately matched fishing boats, recreational craft, tenders and other vessels where an electric outboard system can meet the required speed, range and duty cycle.
Boat compatibility should always be checked against the hull manufacturer’s maximum rated propulsion power, transom requirements, displacement, intended operating speed and local regulations. A 12 kW motor is a serious propulsion system and should be installed as a complete matched electrical and mechanical system.

Before installing an X12, confirm the shaft length, transom height, battery arrangement, control system, communication wiring, propeller and required electrical protection. The 96 V electrical architecture requires appropriate installation practices and compatible components.
ePropulsion provides X12 user documentation, quick-start information, mounting templates and technical drawings. Use the manufacturer’s current installation documentation for the exact motor revision rather than relying only on general product-page specifications.
If you are comparing the X12 with other electric outboard motors, compare continuous power requirements, battery capacity, shaft length, steering system, trim and tilt, propeller options, boat weight and expected range. The X12’s 96 V, 12 kW platform places it in a different operating class from compact portable electric outboards.
For availability, compatibility or installation questions, contact the Performance Engines team before ordering.
The X12 is rated at 12 kW of input power on a 96 VDC platform. Its individual product records list a maximum power of 12,000 W and a maximum turbo power of 16,000 W.
The X12 uses a 96 VDC nominal electrical platform. Battery, cabling, control and protection components should be selected to match ePropulsion’s X-Series system requirements.
