Honda is the world’s preeminent manufacturer of engines, selling nearly 20
million units globally across all product lines in 2004. This high production
volume, coupled with the company’s deep level of experience and commitment to
precision manufacturing techniques, has allowed Honda to remain the leader in
4-stroke technology.
Honda engineers work to ensure that every Honda outboard model – ranging from 2
to 225 horsepower – sets the standard for fuel efficiency and ease of
operation, while staying true to the core Honda attributes of durability, quiet
operation, quality, and reliability. Honda’s advanced 4-stroke technology
reduces the user’s cost of operation because no oil is needed in combustion,
and, like all Honda engines, the marine models offer Ultra-Low
Emissions, exceed the 2006 EPA emissions standards and comply with
strict ratings as determined by the California Air Resource Board (CARB).
Honda continually perfects its marine engine line by incorporating technologies
from its highly advanced automotive and racing heritage. The unparalleled
performance, power, and reliability of the Honda Marine 4- stroke engine line
is attributed to a number of exclusive technological features
such as VTEC™, Honda’s Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control. First
debuting in the high-performance Acura NSX supercar, VTEC™ technology has since
been integrated into the designs of the BF225, BF150 and BF90 marine engines,
providing these flagship models a unique blend of power, torque, and efficiency
at any speed.
Boosted Low Speed Torque (BLAST™), Dual-Stage Induction, Lean Burn
Feedback, a 3-Way Cooling System, and a 4-Front Corrosion
Protection System (which includes a patented paint process, sacrificial
anodes and stainless steel components) are just a few of the other innovative
design components that conspire to deliver excellent power and durability
throughout the entire Honda Marine engine line.
Honda Marine outboard engines also are low
maintenance thanks to precision engineering which results in tighter
tolerances, better performance, and quieter and longer lasting engines.
