Volvo Penta D8-IPS is an optimized package, powered by the in-line 6-cylinder D8, a 7.7-liter, common-rail diesel with a twin-entry turbo and supercharger for enhanced low rpm response. The D8-IPS is available in 600, 650, and 700 versions for Commercial applications, and 700 and 800 versions for leisure. Working together with an optimized IPS15 pod, twin counter-rotating propellers, and the Electronic Vessel Control system, this package provides you with enhanced maneuverability, extended action range, and reduced emissions.

Features & Benefits

Maneuverability

Steerable pods provide convenient slow-speed maneuverability and great high-speed handling. Docking is simplified, even in confined spaces. The enhanced maneuverability also supports an efficient driver response – which can increase safety on board.
Features & Benefits

Optimized performance

This optimized, integrated engine and pod system with a turbo provides enhanced performance and improved maneuverability throughout the operating range. By working in undisturbed water, the forward-facing propellers improve the performance even more.
Features & Benefits

Comfort

The engine and pod system is designed for reduced noise and an enhanced onboard environment. A combined rubber suspension and seal help absorb propulsion forces and vibrations, and all exhaust fumes are emitted through the pods and into the prop wash to enhance comfort.
Features & Benefits

Electronic Vessel Control

Volvo Penta Electronic Vessel Control easily connects the engine, electronics, and a range of optional features such as Joystick Docking, Dynamic Positioning System, and Glass Cockpit. e-Key is standard, and the system also includes built-in redundancy to provide a backup system.
Features & Benefits

Compact and durable package

The engine is designed and built for strength, featuring a cylinder block made of compacted graphite iron and a cast-iron cylinder head. Together, the engine and pod form a compact, durable, and efficient package designed for ease of installation. This provides you with reliable performance and long-term durability.
Features & Benefits

Extended service life

Volvo Penta propulsion systems are designed for ease of maintenance. Our range of high-quality oil, lubrication, and coolant is developed to support uptime and reliable performance over time. Accessories include a fuel pre-filter to help maintain engine condition.
