Compact and lightweight design
The compact engine-drive design facilitates installation. With an aluminum cylinder block and head, low-friction, lightweight pistons, and a cast-aluminum oil pan, the engine provides an improved power-to-weight ratio.
Direct injection technology
The direct injection fuel system enables a high compression ratio, extracting more energy from each drop of fuel. This contributes to reduced fuel consumption and emission levels.
Variable valve timing
With variable valve timing, the movement of each intake and exhaust valve is adjusted for speed and load. This ensures consistent combustion across varying rpm, contributing to improved torque and acceleration throughout the rpm range.
Freshwater‐cooled engine
The freshwater cooling system is designed to extend engine lifespan and improve performance. The closed-loop system prevents seawater exposure inside the engine, reducing corrosion and contributing to improved engine durability and resale value.
Forward Drive
The forward-facing, Duoprop twin counter-rotating propellers operate in undisturbed water to provide strong thrust, stable tracking, and faster acceleration. Together, the FWD drive and gasoline engine complete the propulsion system with reduced noise and low-level vibration.
