Volvo Penta Forward Drive V8‐FWD-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 Forward Drive Duoprop drive, this package offers great versatility, low noise levels, very low emission levels, and impressive acceleration power.

Features & Benefits

Compact and lightweight design

The 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.
Features & Benefits

Direct injection technology

The 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.
Features & Benefits

Coastal Series for Saltwater Boating

Protected by a revolutionary titanium-ceramic coating and additional sensors, Coastal Series is Volvo Penta’s answer to the corrosive effects of salt water!
Features & Benefits

Freshwater‐cooled engine

The 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.
Features & Benefits

Forward Drive

The forward-facing, Duoprop twin counter-rotating propellers operate in undisturbed water to provide strong thrust, stable tracking, and faster acceleration. Together, the FWD drive and gasoline engine complete the propulsion system with reduced noise and low-level vibration.
