High torque at low RPM
Designed for commercial and recreational use, the CXO300 is a new generation of diesel marine technology, offering a high-powered diesel outboard to the marine market. Delivering 503 lb.ft torque at 2250-3000 revolutions per minute, the CXO300 allows your vessel to move through the water in a much more controlled and smooth manner, whilst also meeting the demands for a high performing outboard engine and ensuring safety and convenience at the same time.
Exceptional fuel savings
With up to 30% better fuel efficiency compared to a 300hp gasoline outboard, and with a service life that is three times your average outboard, the CXO300 not only provides unique fuel savings, but it also provides exceptional total cost of ownership savings.

An outboard engine fit for the future
Cox Marine is committed to delivering a long-term development program of ground-breaking and sustainable diesel outboards to a wide range of users. To ensure the CXO300 is a clean burning engine, it has been put through a series of rigorous testing program and has successfully achieved EPA Tier 3, RCD II, IMO II and BSO II.
