2026 Volvo Penta D13 IMO III D13 IMO III - 1000 hp

Volvo Penta D13 IMO III is an in-line 6-cylinder, 12.8-liter diesel engine featuring a high-pressure unit injector system, overhead camshaft, and a twin-entry turbo with a water-cooled exhaust manifold. This design contributes to improved fuel efficiency, optimized operating economy, and reduced emissions. It’s designed to handle high back pressure and high-sulfur fuel. The SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) exhaust aftertreatment system is designed for an optimal fit. The SCR unit, which also functions as a silencer, reduces noise by 35-40 dBA. This engine meets IMO III exhaust emission standards, while maintaining consistent fuel consumption. Thanks to the SCR system, the engine power output remains unchanged.

Features may include

The engine is designed and built for strength, featuring a rigid cast-iron cylinder block and cylinder head. This design contributes to high reliability and long-term durability.

The distinctive marine torque of Volvo Penta diesel engines provides increased load-carrying capability, rapid acceleration, and the ability to maintain high cruising speeds – even in challenging marine conditions.

The advanced fuel injection system contributes to improved fuel efficiency. The control unit monitors several parameters to help reduce overall fuel consumption.

The engine’s large swept volume, combined with the electronic management system, results in a smooth-running engine with exceptional diesel performance, reduced fuel consumption, and lower emission levels.

Volvo Penta offers two type-approved systems for on-board electronic control. Electronic Vessel Control integrates the engines, electronics, and offers a range of optional features. Marine Commercial Control System is an open system designed for easy integration into the ship’s control system.
