2023 Volvo Penta V8-380-TCC Base

2023 Volvo Penta V8-380-TCC

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:

• All aluminum cylinder block

• Closed freshwater cooling system

• Wideband oxygen sensors

• Compact dimensions

• Drive with built-in kick-up function

• Spark-ignited, direct fuel injection system

• Duoprop twin, counter-rotating propellers

• Drive with titanium-ceramic coating

• Catalytic converter

• Electronic engine control system

• Low-weight, aluminum exhaust system

• Easy accessible service points

• Variable valve timing

• Easy Drain system

• Water-in-oil sensor

• Water-in-bellow sensor

• The compact engine-drive package facilitates installation. Thanks to the aluminum cylinder block and cylinder head, the low-friction, lightweight pistons, and a cast-aluminum oil pan, the power-to-weight ratio is excellent.

• The direct injection fuel system enables high compression ratio with more energy coming from each drop of fuel – thus reducing both fuel consumption and emission levels.

• With the variable valve timing, each movement of the intake and exhaust valve can be optimized for speed and load. Combustion will always be correct irrespective of rpm, resulting in higher torque and acceleration across the whole rpm range.

• The freshwater cooling system makes the engine last longer and run better. The closed-loop system eliminates seawater exposure inside the engine, prevents corrosion and improves the engine’s durability and resale value.

• With 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.

• Salt 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.
