Range of the Torqeedo Cruise 10 kW pod drive

Travel time and range of the Torqeedo Cruise 10.0 FP Podmotor depend on the boat and the battery. In an example with the Cruise 10.0 and 2x of the Power 48-5000 battery we have the following readings for motorboats and sailing boats up to 10 tons:

If you plan longer and more comfortable tours on the water, you will even get a lot further with less power. At 1/4 of the power, a speed of 7.8 km/h was reached for 6 hours (4.2 knots). All in all a range of 60 km (32 nautical miles). And that with only one battery charge.

Cruise 10.0 - Info about the range

For operation, a supply of at least one lithium battery (Power 48/5000) or lead batteries (lead gel or AGM) must be provided. The Power 48/5000 has 44.4 V, 5000 Wh and a weight of 74 kg. Others can also be connected in parallel.

Alternatively, at least two lithium batteries of the Power 24-3500 series can be combined with the Cruise 10.0. In displacement mode, the required power increases exponentially. If you want to double your speed, you need eight times the power. At the same time, you can increase the range enormously during your excursion if you reduce the speed a little.

The charger for Cruise 10.0 FP

The matching charger Power 48-5000 has a charging current of 13 A and is waterproof according to IP 65. The charger charges the Power 48-5000 from 0 to 100% in max. 10 hours. In addition, up to three chargers can be connected simultaneously.
