Volvo Penta is pleased to announce the launch of its strongest marine engine ever at the Sydney International Boat Show.

The D13-IPS1350 further strengthens the exciting new line-up, delivering more power and increased durability for yachts up to 120 feet.

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.
