The Volvo Penta D8-550 Marine Diesel Engine is a 7.7-litre, inline six-cylinder propulsion engine delivering 405 kW (550 HP) at 2,900 rpm. Its common-rail fuel system, turbocharged and supercharged air system, and Volvo Penta Electronic Vessel Control (EVC) provide an integrated platform for demanding marine propulsion.
Designed for compatible powerboats and motor yachts, the D8-550 combines substantial 550 HP output with freshwater cooling and heat exchanger technology, making it a strong option for new installations and marine repower projects requiring a high-output Volvo Penta diesel engine.
