Aug 15, 2017

Volvo Penta is pleased to announce the launch of its strongest marine engine ever at the Sydney International Boat Show. The newly designed D13 engine sees the company move into the 1000hp engine range for the first time. The D13-IPS1350 further strengthens the exciting new line-up, delivering more power and increased durability for yachts up to 120 feet. Volvo Penta’s complementary IPS pod drive, which is also being revealed at the show, has been upgraded to match the higher power of the engine.

Volvo Penta has also enhanced its Inboard Performance System (IPS) pod design, to match the class-leading performance of its latest and most powerful diesel engine – the D13-1000. The upgraded IPS 30 pod is the largest in the range.
