Volvo Penta
Motors
For more than a century, Volvo has based its development on values and strategies similar to those of its partner BENETEAU. With a strong tradition of innovation, Volvo revolutionised sailing on many occasions, with new products and concepts, ranging from the diesel stern drive to IPS transmission, including the duo prop propellers and steering with a joystick. The company has remained a forerunner in the Marine market, continually finding new ways to meet and even surpass their client’s expectations.
Thanks to their combined research and development work, the two companies have perfected new innovative technology in terms of manoeuvrability and safety, enabling a whole new generation of sailors to gain access to the pleasures of sailing. Without naming them all, the AirStep hulls developed by the BENETEAUBoatyard design office and the Volvo Penta IPS (Inboard Propulsion System) transmission are two examples of innovations that have been crowned with success, resulting from this partnership, that have led to higher performance boats in the marine industry.
Volvo motorizes boats in the Gran Tursimo, Swift Trawler and Antares inboard ranges.
