Passenger Ships & Ferries
Around the world, large passenger ships, fast ferries (including hydrofoils and catamarans) and conventional ferries rely on MTU diesel engines for uncompromising safety and economic performance. Most of these vessels are equipped with MTU engines ranging from 364 kW (Series S60) to 9,100 kW (Series 8000). Proven MTU marine engines combine low weight and compact size with high power and reliability – and unmatched availability. That’s why many shipping and ferry companies consistently choose MTU for the new construction of large and fast passenger ships and car ferries over 70 meters long.
