The Scania Marine engine range for EPA Tier 3 is the latest edition to the Scania marine engine range, which includes enhanced environmental performance with increased power, and yet unchanged fuel consumption.

The engine range consists of a 13 liter Inline six and a powerful 16 liter V8 for use in both marine propulsion and marine auxiliary applications.

These new engines will conform to upcoming EPA Tier 3 emission legislation for engines in North America which will come into effect on 1 January 2014 for engines in the power bracket 75 kW to 3000 kW, and 1.2 to 2.5 liters of displacement per cylinder.

Scania will be exhibiting the full marine engine range on October 9-11, 2013,  at the International Workboat Show in New Orleans at booth number 1802.
