Honda Marine Europe returns to Metstrade in 2025 to highlight its expanded lineup of high-power outboards as the company continues to drive sales growth with new innovations, strengthened boatbuilder collaborations and increased customer focus.
Following last year’s debut at the marine leisure industry’s leading event for professionals at RAI Amsterdam, Honda Marine Europe will mark a high-profile comeback to the exhibition floor on Stand 07.112 following this year’s launch of its upgraded V6 and 4-cylinder engines.
Metstrade 2025 is a key event for the Honda Marine business, with its representatives from across the company’s main European branches gathering to support its presence across the three days.
The significantly enhanced V6 200-250hp and 4-cylinder 115-150hp outboards, which will be available to the market in early 2026, deliver a range of benefits to boaters, from improved performance, durability, comfort and style to increased fuel efficiency and ease of use and maintenance.
Continuing over 60 years of innovation, the new outboards reflect Honda Marine Europe’s reinforced commitment to answer the evolving needs of customers with advanced, high-performance solutions which deliver on fun and adventure, without compromise on sustainability.
Honda Marine’s comprehensive portfolio of outboards, now spanning 2.3 to 350hp, provides a springboard for strengthened collaborations with key European boatbuilders.
These partnerships demonstrate how boaters can benefit from combined expertise for ready-to-go boats integrating cutting-edge technology and meticulous workmanship, answering demand for all-in-one boat and engine packages, pre-paired and tested for the optimal configuration.
In 2025, we are proud to have made significant strides in taking our longstanding reputation as a leading innovator of high-performance outboard engines to the next level. With the positive momentum generated by the launch of the new V6 and 4-cylinder outboards, and the BF350 V8 previously, we arrive at this year’s Metstrade for the second time with great optimism for continued growth and customer engagement across Europe in the coming months. Our company mission is strong – a dedication to not only deliver on power and performance, but to inspire our customers and capture the emotion, lifestyle and exhilaration of life on the water with Honda Marine. Working with our trusted boatbuilders and other partners, we are confident we can meet the evolving preferences and priorities of our customers, including the next generation of boaters, with smart, advanced technology and turnkey, whole boat solutions with pre-paired engine and boat configurations.
