Cox Powertrain

Cox Powertrain is a British design and engineering in- novator of diesel engines developed for marine applica- tions globally. Led by ex-Cosworth CEO, Tim Routsis, whose background lies in engine development in global automotive, aerospace and marine markets, the com- pany’s mission was to deliver a completely new concept in diesel engines that has the potential to revolutionize the marine market. With a strong pedigree in Formula 1 racing and premium automotive design, Cox’s team of engineers has decades of experience in combustion en- gines and understands the many challenges customers face. Cox’s ? rst diesel outboard performance engine, the

CXO300, delivers the same performance and packaging of a gasoline outboard but with the fuel ef? ciency and reliability of a diesel inboard.

Cox Powertrain commenced serial production of the

CXO300 in Shoreham, U.K. at the end of May, with plans to reach full production of 38 outboard per week by August 2020. The engine recently achieved EPA Tier 3 approval, giving Cox Powertrain the green light to start shipping its production outboards to the U.S. Cox is sup- ported by a worldwide distributor network made up of 35 distributors covering 100 countries.
