Volvo Penta Debuts

New Marine Engines

Volvo Penta introduced the ? rst two models of its next-generation sterndrive marine gasoline en- gines. The new 4.3-liter catalyzed V6 engines, rated at 200 and 240 hp, will supplement Volvo Pen- ta’s current V6 product line. Volvo Penta will roll out the complete new family of next-generation

V6 and V8 gasoline sterndrive engines during 2015 and 2016, expanding on the V8-380 introduced by Volvo Penta in 2012.

“These next-generation gasoline engines are true thoroughbreds incorporating innovations that yield dramatic improvements in torque, acceleration, fuel ef? ciency, emissions and durability at a competitive cost,” said Ron Huibers, president of Volvo Penta of the Americas.

Current and new engines are available with DPS, OceanX and SX drives as well as Electronic Ves- sel Control (EVC) options. The engines also come with constant RPM in turns as a standard feature. wwwvolvopenta.com (Image: Volvo Penta)
