Brief Summary

Diesel Engine - The D9 in-line 6 diesel is developed from the latest design in modern diesel technology.



According to Volvo Penta, the D9 has a robust block with ladder frame, high pressure unit injector system, 4 valves per cylinder, “twin entry” turbo and aftercooler. Together with a large swept volume and the electronic engine management system, this results in a very smooth running engine with world-class diesel performance, combined with low fuel consumption and emissions.
