An Intuitive, Integrated, Intelligent Control for Single Mercury Engines
The Next Generation Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS) control delivers smooth, quiet shifting and instant throttle response, with zero hesitation. With integrated SmartCraft® technologies and an intuitive user interface, the control puts you in complete command of your adventures.
Designed for Comfort and Control
Whether you want to throttle up or comfortably cruise, the sleek, ergonomic throttle handle and easy-to-reach control buttons seamlessly connect you with your Mercury propulsion system. Even the base was designed with a comfortable shape and a grip ledge for extra stability when driving in rough seas.
Driving Made Easier
Every button, every indicator light, every egine control was scrutinized through intensive usability testing to ensure the Next Gen DTS control is easy and intuitive to use. There’s also a neutral lock mechanism that delivers extra security by preventing you from inadvertently shifting into gear. So you can handle the boat with confidence and precision.
Built for all Your Adventures
Next Gen DTS delivers a premium driving experience for wherever the water takes you. It’s compatible with all Mercury DTS-enabled outboard, sterndrive, inboard and diesel engines. That includes the V8 and V6 FourStroke outboards and the legendary Verado® engine family.
SmartCraft Integration Enhances the Boating Experience
Mercury incorporated its popular Active Trim feature directly on the control, making it simple to use the industry’s first GPS speed-based automatic trim system.
