Taiga begins deliveries of the new Orca Performance Personal Watercraft

Taiga Orca

Aug 21, 2023

Off-road electric vehicle manufacturer Taiga Motors Corporation is thrilled to announce the launch of its newest model, Orca Performance, marking a significant milestone in the marine industry. After more than six years of dedicated R&D and cutting-edge engineering, Taiga proudly presents its revolutionary 100% electric Personal Watercraft (PWC), with a starting price of $19,490 USD, making high-performance more accessible to a new wave of uncompromising watersport enthusiasts.
 
Orca Performance represents a paradigm shift redefining the combustion personal watercraft from one of the most polluting recreational boats to a fully electric model delivering segment leading performance, silent operation, and zero emissions at reduced lifetime operating costs.
 
Careful attention has been paid to every aspect of the design for a seamless user experience. A fully closed loop powertrain system, designed for Taiga snowmobiles, not only ensures that no pollutants are introduced to the water, but also means no special winterization is required. Orca Performance silently powers through the water, unheard from the shoreline and up to 30 dB quieter than gas watercraft.
 
Taiga OrcaTaiga’s sealed lithium-ion battery has been optimized from a clean sheet to safely deliver maximum power across its lifetime under high vibrations and saltwater environments, providing energy for up to two hours of riding. Using standard automotive charging systems, Orca Performance can be easily charged with the included mobile connector overnight on any outlet, with Level 2 chargers in 3.5 hours or on optional DC Fast Charging to 80% in under 40 minutes.
