UNRIVALLED, NO COMPARISON
No outboard in the class offers more displacement than the V8 4.6L Verado. The performance-inspired 32-valve double-overhead-cam (DOHC) design and long, tuned intake runners produce more torque and allow the engine to reach higher engine speeds (RPM) faster.
The smooth, refined power of a V8 4.6L powerhead delivers exhilarating acceleration and top speed to run offshore with confidence, with generous displacement and robust design that provide uncompromising durability and reliability.
