Volvo Penta Aquamatic Sterndrive V8-TCC with Coastal Series is a totally integrated package, powered by the 8-cylinder, 5.3-liter or 6.2-liter, freshwater-cooled, direct-injected gasoline engine with catalyst. Working together with the perfectly matched TCC Duoprop drive, providing additional corrosion protection, this package offers very low emission levels, excellent handling, and impressive acceleration power.
Features may include
Compact and lightweight designThe 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 technologyThe 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 timingWith 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 engineThe 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.
Easy Drain systemWith the Easy Drain system, the engine is drained from raw water in just minutes. Thanks to the anti-siphon valve, this is possible with the boat still in the water.
Coastal SeriesSalt or brackish water boaters may want to upgrade to the Coastal Series proprietary titanium-ceramic coating which makes the corrosion resistance up to four times more resistant than our standard drives.
