The diesel aquamatic sterndrive from Volvo Penta is the world’s leading marine sterndrive product line. These engines are built for the performance demands of commercial marine use and deliver efficiency and safety in every application in which they’re used. When you need performance without sacrificing reliability, Volvo Penta’s sterndrive engines are the premier choice. This line is available from 140 – 400 hp.
A complete sterndrive system where all parts have been developed in parallel with each other, providing higher reliability and overall performance. The drives and propellers have been designed in concert to match engine torque and boat speed. This engineering gives you the most thrust from every drop of fuel.
The Volvo Penta sterndrive gives you the direct response. The common rail engines deliver massive torque from low revs for safe maneuvering and rapid acceleration onto the plane. The highly efficient drives turn power into performance with precise and direct steering.
Aquamatic Sterndrive with Duoprop propellers gives you high efficiency and reduces fuel consumption by up to 30% when compared to most inboard and outboard solutions. Volvo Penta sterndrives also provide low C02 emissions.
The counter-rotating propellers – the Duoprop – provide unrivaled performance, responsive handling and excellent grip in the water. All propellers are perfectly matched to a specific drive and application. Volvo Penta sterndrives provide safe driving and maneuvering even in rough sea conditions.
By integrating a boat’s engines and electronics into one platform, you’ll be able to enjoy unique functions that will increase control, maneuvering and onboard comfort. The Aquamatic combines the benefits of both inboard as well as outboard systems, including reduced sound and vibrations, and freshwater cooling for longer service life.
