- Closed freshwater cooling prevents internal rust
- 180-Amp alternator charges marine battery banks
- Hydraulic transmission ensures smooth gear engagement
Maintain a dependable mechanical power source in the engine room with the Volvo Penta D3-110. This 2.4-liter inline 5-cylinder marine diesel engine delivers 110 horsepower at 3000 RPM, making it an ideal repower engine for sailboats, displacement cruisers, and commercial workboats. Variable Geometry Turbocharging ensures quick throttle response at low RPMs, while common-rail fuel injection keeps fuel burn clean and quiet during long passages.
Closed freshwater cooling keeps seawater away from internal engine passages, preventing scale buildup and corrosion. Housed in an SAE 4 flywheel housing, the engine includes a 14V 180-amp alternator, Electronic Vessel Control network connectivity, and a total dry weight of 301 kg with marine gear.
Engine Performance and Engineering
Smooth 5-cylinder firing order and electronic engine management define the performance of this Volvo Penta inboard engine. Pressure-feed wet sump lubrication protects internal bearings under heel angles, while the water-cooled exhaust riser dampens noise before discharge.
Why Choose the Volvo Penta D3-110 Inboard Marine Engine
Sailboat owners choose the D3-110 marine engine for its smooth 2.4-liter 5-cylinder block and efficient 110 horsepower output. Its Variable Geometry Turbocharger and common-rail fuel delivery provide strong thrust without annoying cabin noise or smoke. Closed freshwater cooling, SAE 4 housing compatibility, and an 180-amp alternator make it a reliable repower choice.
Warranty and Support
Volvo Penta backs this engine with a 2-Year Factory Limited Warranty covering major internal mechanical components. For engine details and order support, offers assistance before your repower order is placed. A pre-shipment visual inspection confirms the engine crate and documented included rigging items. Current coverage information and warranty eligibility are available for review on before ordering.
Before Ordering the Volvo Penta D3-110 Inboard Marine Engine
