Newport 6-Horse Equivalent Electric Outboard

Stockton, CA – Newport proudly announces the official launch of its most powerful and technologically advanced system to date: the NT600 Electric Outboard Motor, a 6-horsepower equivalent electric outboard designed for serious anglers and boaters. Purpose-built to pair seamlessly with the brand-new 48V LoPRO Lithium Battery, this high-performance duo represents the latest evolution in Newport’s pursuit of clean, quiet, and intelligent marine power.

The NT600 is the shining star of Newport’s 2025 new product introductions, delivering best-in-class performance with GPS-integrated readouts on its full color screen, Bluetooth connectivity, and a high-efficiency brushless motor, all in a compact, portable package. It’s a system made for anglers who demand power without the noise, maintenance, or emissions of gas.

“This is a huge milestone for us,” said Howie Strech, Brand Marketing Manager at Newport. “The NT600 is more than just our most powerful motor, it’s a showcase of Newport’s ability to push the envelope in the electrification of small fishing vessels. From the intuitive color display to the built-in GPS and seamless integration with our LoPRO battery platform, this is a step into the future of angling.”

At the core of the system is the newly released 48V70Ah LoPRO Lithium Battery, a sleek, lightweight, low-profile powerhouse built specifically to maximize the NT600’s performance. Offering advanced energy density and intelligent power management in a compact form factor, the LoPRO simplifies 48V systems for anglers seeking plug-and-play efficiency.

“We didn’t just want to release a bigger battery, we wanted to redefine what a 48V system could look and feel like,” said Jason Kardas, Head of Product Development at Newport. “The LoPRO is the result of extensive R&D and field testing. It’s compact, powerful, and built to work in perfect harmony with the NT600. Together, they offer the ultimate electric boating experience.”

Together, the NT600 and LoPRO battery exemplify Newport’s unwavering focus on innovation, field-tested functionality, and angler-first design. This launch reaffirms Newport’s leadership in electric marine propulsion, opening new possibilities for shallow-water access, silent stealth fishing, and all-day confidence on big water.
