The Deutz Power Center Florida (South) in West Palm Beach has taken on the responsibility for parts, sales and service of Torqeedo marine electric drive systems in South Florida.
The DEUTZ center will carry the most popular electric outboards and accessories from Torqeedo’s Cruise, Travel and Ultralight model lines. Inboard, saildrive and pod motors will also be available, as well as the Deep Blue and Deep Blue Hybrid systems for commercial vessels and yachts up to 120ft. Trained service and support staff will be on-site with a complement of spare parts for Torqeedo’s climate-friendly drive systems, ready to serve both commercial and recreational clients.
“We are pleased to offer a sales and service point for our sister company Torqeedo in the important South Florida marine market,” said Bob Mann, president and CEO of Deutz Corporation.
“Our Power Center philosophy is to take good care of our customers through dedicated service and parts support, along with selling Deutz engines to customers with Deutz powered equipment. Through periodic maintenance programs, emergency 24-hour service support and plenty of Deutz genuine parts on our shelves, we’re able to successfully keep our customers up and running.”
Steve Trkla, president of Torqeedo, Inc., added, “We’re thrilled that Torqeedo customers in Florida will have access to a fully-stocked sales and service facility with a highly trained and professional staff at the new Deutz Power Center in West Palm Beach. We look forward to exploring more opportunities for cooperation in the USA.”
Torqeedo has been a subsidiary of Deutz since 2017 and offers electric and hybrid drives with power outputs of between 0.5kW and 100kW for commercial applications and leisure use.
