    Integrated Digital electric steering

    Owners love this highly efficient built-in steering system delivers a smoother and more intuitive experience when at the helm, it is lighter and less complex than a separate hydraulic system plus is cleaner to fit and operate, and far quicker and simpler to rig.

    Simple maintenance, super charging

    Leave your boat at the dock as you execute an easy in-water gear oil change, simplifying this process. A multi-part cowling with quick-access locks allows secure, easy access for maintenance and adjustments. Finally, the High Output system provides stable charging even at low rpm

    TotalTilt™ function with integrated tilt limit

    Yamaha’s exclusive TotalTilt™ function allows complete tilt up or down, from any position, with a simple double-push of the respective tilt button. A buzzer sound alerts crew to keep clear of the outboard, and the integrated tilt limiter helps to prevent inadvertent damage.

    Ultimate efficiency from Direct Injection

    Yamaha is on a mission to deliver ever-greater efficiency and economy and the fuel system on the XTO 400hp V8 is the ideal example of how we execute on this objective, from the first-ever Direct Injection 4-stroke engine to the thrust-enhancing reverse exhaust system.

    Built to last.

    Every aspect of the XTO 400hp V8 offers beat-in-class build quality. Massive crankshaft, torque-absorbing heavy-duty gears, an extra-large diameter prop shaft, and the gearcase design, with its low friction co-efficient and better cooling, all contribute to reliable performance.

    Thrust-enhancing reverse exhaust system.

    This system expels the exhaust using a combination of three different routes, depending on the RPM level. The result is around 300% more reverse thrust, better balance between forward and reverse thrust when manoeuvring with Helm Master EX®, and greater efficiency at full power.
