French electric outboard manufacturer secures extra funding amid strong sales growth

French electric outboard motor brand TEMO has signed its second round of financing raising an additional €1.5m to expand its range and boost exports. The French start-up’s DAME-award winning drive unit that consists of a lightweight battery-filled tube with a 450W motor and prop system on one end, has proven a hit in the market since its launch back in 2022. It’s already sold 1,500-plus models of its TEMO.450 electric outboard - with 3,000 units expected to be sold by the end of this year.
