WITH MORE THAN 1,400 TEMO.450 electric outboards sold in 2021 and a 96 per cent customer satisfaction rate, the start-up confirms a successful first year on the market for the innovative French electric outboard motor.
These performances were welcomed by the start-up’s investors and banks, who had invested €600K in June 2020 to strengthen the industrial know-how and deploy the sales force in France.
TEMO is due to release a more powerful model (1000W) in early 2022, designed for large tenders and small sailing boats.
Meanwhile, the Loire-based company is also developing new product adaptations and accessories to enable its motors to be used with all light watercraft (kayaks, Optimists, etc.).
New capital raised recently is also intended to strengthen TEMO’s presence around the world. An export strategy is already well underway since the end of 2021 with the appointment of several official distributors in the United Kingdom, Scandinavia and Oceania.
