Mercury 300CXL FourStroke DTS Outboard Engine 300hp: Power, Efficiency, and Innovation

The Mercury 300CXL FourStroke DTS Outboard Engine with 300hp is a game-changer in the boating world. Powered by a robust V-8 4.6-liter engine, this outboard is designed to maximize torque, acceleration, and fuel efficiency while minimizing weight. Whether you’re a passionate fisherman or an adventure seeker, the Mercury 300CXL provides the perfect balance of power and efficiency for any boating enthusiast.

Mercury 300CXL FourStroke DTS Outboard Engine 300hp  Key Features

1. Go Farther with Advanced Range Optimization

The Mercury 300CXL features Advanced Range Optimization, a technology that uses closed-loop fuel control to precisely adjust the fuel mixture for maximum efficiency. This ensures that you can go farther on a single tank of fuel, making it the ideal choice for long-distance trips, fishing expeditions, or offshore adventures. Whether you’re exploring the coast or navigating through rough waters, this feature optimizes fuel consumption for the best possible range.

2. Effortless Control with Adaptive Speed Control

Adaptive Speed Control is one of the standout features of the Mercury 300CXL. This innovative system automatically maintains the engine’s speed (rpm), regardless of changes in load or water conditions. Whether you’re navigating rough water, making tight turns, or performing tow sports, Adaptive Speed Control ensures you don’t need to constantly adjust the throttle, offering a smoother, more stable ride.

3. Lighter and More Powerful by Design

Mercury engineers have worked tirelessly to reduce the weight of the Mercury 300CXL without compromising on power. This V-8 FourStroke outboard is the lightest engine in the 300hp class by more than 10 pounds. Despite its lighter weight, the engine delivers unmatched torque and acceleration, allowing you to achieve quick hole shots and top speeds. The engine is designed to provide thrilling performance while maintaining fuel efficiency and reliability.

4. Smart Charging and Idle Charge Technology

The Mercury 300CXL is equipped with Idle Charge, a battery-management system that helps prevent battery drain. When you’re operating multiple electronic devices on your boat, the system will automatically increase idle rpm to boost alternator output and recharge low batteries. This ensures that your battery remains charged throughout the day, giving you peace of mind on long trips or when using power-hungry electronics like fish finders or audio systems.
