Suzuki 15 HP Outboard Motor - Model DF15AEL5
The Suzuki DF15AEL5 is a 15 HP long shaft EFI outboard with electric start and tiller steering, built for small boats and dinghies with a 20" transom. At just 108 lbs, it balances portability with reliable four-stroke performance.
Equipped with Suzuki’s battery-less EFI system, the DF15AEL5 delivers easy starts, smooth acceleration, and excellent fuel economy without the need for a separate battery. The manual tilt system provides simple and durable trim adjustments, while the included 3.1-gallon fuel tank and line allow for extended trips on the water.
A 12V 145W alternator is built in, making this outboard capable of powering electronics or charging batteries. With a saltwater-rated anti-corrosion finish, this motor is engineered for long-lasting durability in both fresh and saltwater environments.
