Selva has been busy upgrading existing models and introducing new ones for the 2021 season.
Its range of outboard engines that span 2.5hp-300hp has been bolstered by a new 200hp Selva SEI WHALE XSR model.
Fitted with a 2,785cc four-cylinder 16V engine and electronic controls, Selva says that it has worked with an Italian engine-tuning company to remap the outboard’s ECU.
It’s the XSR remap which alters ignition and fuel injection timing and duration to create the “Sport” feel.

Selva says that it makes a noticeable difference to throttle response – more like the feel of a 2-stroke than a standard 4-stroke, apparently.
Compared to the existing 200hp SEI WHALE, the XSR offers improved out-of-the-hole acceleration, mid-range torque, a sharper throttle response and lower fuel consumption.
Its V6 outboards (225hp and 250hp) now include a customised Selva DLC-Plus TFT 4.3in screen, which lets the operator monitor a variety of engine and sensor parameters.
The display shows engine data, with up to four additional sensors, allowing users to create their own screen configuration.
Both motors are based around a 4,169cc 24V DOHC V6 engine. All three are also available with clockwise or counter-clockwise propellers, making them ideal for twin engine installations.
Prices for outboards in the 2021 Selva range start from £18,959.
