INNOVATION and the Electric and Hybrid Show in Fort Lauderdale. “Last week, STEYR MOTORS won the US-A-Biz Award 2016, the so-called Oscar for outstanding performances of Austrian companies in the American market in the “spectacular” category, after winning against its strongest competitors and securing a U.S. Navy contract to equip a fl eet of more than 400 patrol boards,” says Thaler. These high-tech motors that can be used with different fuels are also en vogue for commercial boats – especially hybrid motors.
