Mercury Pro XS® outboards are engineered for those boaters who demand ultimate performance – anglers competing on the highly competitive tournament trails and powerboaters who simply crave speed and acceleration. Exclusive components and tuning extract of every ounce of performance from each Pro XS model, so you can take it to the limit.
Intuitive, innovative features
TorqueMaster gearcase
The lightweight TorqueMaster gearcase (featured on select V8 models) has a 1.75:1 gear ratio and a robust 1.25 inch diameter prop shaft designed for semi-surfacing, high-speed applications.
Transient spark technology
Transient spark technology electronically adjusts the ignition timing of the engine as needed. This subtle, automatic change produces additional torque for faster hole shot and acceleration.
Adaptive Speed Control
Adaptive Speed Control maintains a desired rpm regardless of changes in load or conditions without adjustments to the throttle lever position – a first for the outboard industry.
Extra charging power
A powerful alternator provides net charging output of 20 amps at idle and 85 amps at wide open throttle. Idle charge battery-management technology automatically increases idle rpm to boost alternator output and recharge low batteries.
Performance-tuned exhaust
The exhaust tone has been fine-tuned to provide a brawny performance-inspired sound quality that is unmistakable on the water yet quieter than competing high-output engines.
Pro XS performance data
Unmatched power and speed
The V8 and V6 Pro XS outboards perform like no other, with a dual overhead cam design that delivers instantaneous throttle response and immediate power.
