Is a V MAX SHO four stroke less expensive to operate than a 2 stroke, given the same horsepower?
Yamaha’s new V MAX SHO four stroke outboards are not only very economical to operate, but are also unbelievably light weight and offer best-in-class hole shot and acceleration, and comparable (or better) top speed. Additionally, they average 12% better fuel economy across the rpm range than our renowned V MAX Series 2 two stroke direct-injected outboards. Plus, instead of burning expensive two stroke oil, you periodically change the oil in the crankcase (please dispose of used oil properly). Since we can’t speak definitively to every application out there, we’ll let you do the math. In any case, we believe you’ll like the result.
Yamaha’s new V MAX SHO four stroke outboards are not only very economical to operate, but are also unbelievably light weight and offer best-in-class hole shot and acceleration, and comparable (or better) top speed. In Yamaha on-water testing, the 250hp version averaged 12% better fuel economy across the rpm range than our renowned V MAX Series 2, 250hp two stroke direct-injected outboard. Plus, instead of burning expensive two stroke oil, you periodically change the oil in the crankcase (please dispose of used oil properly), and there’s more room in the boat because you don’t need an on-board oil tank.
