Suzuki Outboard Motors: Light, Efficient and Great Value from 2.5 to 30 HP
Suzuki builds some of the lightest motors in each class and often the best-priced. Here is every small Suzuki four-stroke we stock.
Suzuki outboard motors are gas four-stroke engines from Suzuki Marine. Their small range runs from the very light DF2.5 to the fuel-injected DF30A, with a focus on low weight and value.
Rosa counts every gallon
Rosa runs a one-woman river guide business out of a 16-foot aluminum boat. Six days a week in season, she takes two clients upriver at dawn and brings them back by lunch. For Rosa a motor is not a hobby; it is a line item, and she tracks fuel receipts like a hawk.
When her old motor finally retired, she compared weights, prices and fuel habits and landed on a Suzuki DF25A. The price was the lowest of the 25s she looked at, and battery-less fuel injection meant clean starts on cold mornings even with a pull cord. At the end of her first season she showed her accountant the fuel log. He asked if she had taken the summer off.

Suzuki outboard motors: FAQ
Are Suzuki outboards reliable?
Yes. Suzuki four-strokes have a solid reputation for reliability and efficiency, and routine service is straightforward at any qualified marine shop.
What is the lightest Suzuki outboard?
The DF2.5, at roughly 30 lb. It is one of the lightest gas outboards available and easy to carry with one hand.
What does “battery-less EFI” mean?
The motor’s fuel injection is powered by the engine itself once you pull the cord, so no battery is needed to run it. Electric-start versions still use a battery to crank.
Which Suzuki is best for a 14 ft boat?
The DF15A or DF20A suit most 14 ft aluminum boats. Choose the DF9.9B for 10 HP-limited lakes. Always follow the capacity plate.
