The new Volvo Penta IPS Hybrid combines superior onboard comfort with the unmatched efficiency of forward-facing IPS drivelines, enabling near-silent cruising, reduced vibration, and silent mooring without the need to run a generator.

Available later this year for the yacht sector, the range covers D13-IPS900 H through D13-IPS1350 H and delivers a fully integrated helm-to-propeller solution. Propulsion, electric motors, batteries, energy management and controls are combined into a single, cohesive package – all connected through Volvo Penta’s Electronic Vessel Control system.

The result is a seamless hybrid experience, enabling features such as Assisted Docking, Joystick Driving, Autopilot, and Glass Cockpit across hybrid and electric drive modes.

Volvo Penta was proud to participate as a main sponsor at the 19th edition of Convergence, Ferretti Group’s annual event bringing together captains and chief engineers from around the world.

As a key partner, collaborating with Ferretti Group from the earliest design stages allows us to integrate our propulsion systems seamlessly – supporting performance, reliability, and the onboard experience from concept to operation.

During the sessions at Ferretti’s shipyards in Ravenna and Ancona, we showcased how our IPS solutions integrate onboard and highlighted the advantages of a fully integrated propulsion platform.

Together, we continue shaping the future of yachting through collaboration, innovation, and shared expertise.

Designed to support the future of electric passenger transport. The collaboration between Volvo Penta and Aus Ships brings together advanced electric propulsion technology and decades of shipbuilding expertise to help accelerate the shift toward lower-emission marine transport in Australia.

At the center of the project is a twin installation of the Volvo Penta IPS450E electric propulsion system, delivering 250 kW per driveline and paired with a 460 kWh onboard battery pack and solar panels – creating a flexible energy ecosystem designed for real-world commercial operation.

Built as a scalable demonstrator platform, the project aims to support the next generation of electrically driven passenger ferries while advancing understanding of electric propulsion in commercial marine environments.

A new step forward for sustainable passenger mobility at sea.
