FPT Industrial unveils its new C16 1000 marine engine, presented during the 2018 Cannes boat show. Though the new Cursor 16 has just been unveiled, the engine is already a Guinness World Record holder. Last March, a special version of the Cursor 16 installed on the powerboat achieved the fastest speed on water using a diesel engine, reaching a speed of 277.5 Km/h. This record follows the Cursor 16's previous title of "Diesel of the Year" from 2014. This new C16 1000 is developed for light commercial and pleasure applications, and distinguishes itself for providing top performance with the compactness and the lightness of a 13-liter engine but with the durability of a 16 liters. This C16 1000 is, in fact, the only 16-liter engine on the market to fit in the packaging of a 13-liter engine. The perks regard both the aesthetic and technical aspects of the engine, which has a 6-cylinder in-line architecture and features the latest generation Common Rail injection system which goes up to 2,200 bar. Its power can reach 1000hp at 2300 rpm, placing itself among the best-in-class performance of the category. The new C16 1000 has the best durability, 25% more than the competitors on average, while the power 63 hp/lt and torque 220 Nm/lt density are among the best of light commercial segment. These great characteristics couple with a maximum lightness and a best-in-class power to weight ratio of 0,59hp/kg, thus delivering at the same time top performance and best durability. The customer will have an increased cruising and a max speed together with the best transient response for planing. In order to maximize reliability and resistance to salt and water, the C16 1000 has been designed with specific air, water, oil and fuel circuits. The marinization set includes: heavy duty, high flow sea water pump, a new heat exchanger for improved heat rejection, anodyzed air-intake pipes, a new air filter in epoxy-based material more resistant to salt and humidity, and twisted wiring for maximum resistance to dirt, water and sludge. The C16 1000 has the compactness of a 13-liter engine, which not only means it is among the best-in-class of its category but that the final customer will have an easier installation and wider space on board as well. Furthermore, the engine has a best-in-class maintenance period of up to 600 hours, which translates into easier and cheaper maintenance operations. Inside, the C16 1000 features increased fatigue strength new material components; cylinder block, cylinder head made in Compacted Graphite Iron - CGI, crankshaft and bearings, con-rods, steel pistons, rings, increased flows for oil and water circuits with a professional bronze body and impeller sea water pump, and the last generation of Common Rail with multi-point fuel injection. The turbocharging system is distinguished by a simple and efficient technology with 2 single stage water cooled WG Turbo while the clean and functional lay-out is focused on engine easy serviceability and maintenance, thus granting premium performance, reliability and durability. Finally, regarding the environmental performance, the C16 1000 respects the most stringent regulations along with all the other FPT Industrial engines. Its impact on the environment is reduced for gas emissions, noise, and vibrations, providing not just positive general effects, but also higher comfort of navigation. To achieve these benefits in terms of sustainability, C16 1000 also offers a blow-by system for the best recovery of oil vapors and new green filters for better treatment of engine oils.

Engine: FPT N67 Evo 570hp
The new FPT N67 Evo 570hp is the latest product within the renowned NEF family and ensures top performance, low fuel consumption and reduced environmental impact. These advancements are due to FPT Industrial innovation, bringing together second generation Electronic Common Rail and Wastegate water-cooled turbocharging. Furthermore, it has 4 valves per cylinder, a ladder frame cylinder block and a rear gear train timing system. One of the great perks of this new engine is its lightness: it has the best power to weight ratio in its category, ensuring best boat performance for fast planing and top speed, with best-in-class power density and top torque density among competitors. Moreover, the innovative design and compact lay-out ensures easier installation with simpler engine servicing, assuring greater space available on board. As for the environment, the N67 Evo, with second generation Electronic Common Rail, guarantees greater efficiency, while reducing emissions, and is compliant with US-EPA Tier 3 and EU European Recreational Directive, the two current and most stringent certifications for marine pleasure engines. Moreover, it is compliant also with the IMO MARPOL II. This engine features high navigation comfort as noise and vibrations are reduced to minimum levels.

Engine: FPT N67 570hp
As well as attaining compliance with future EPA Tier 3 exhaust emission
regulations FPT Industrial has also
completely revised the most representative of its marine models. The new N67 570
features a 6 cylinder in-line architecture with a 6,7 litre displacement, 4
valves per cylinder, second generation electronically controlled Common Rail
fuel injection system and a turbocharger with waste-gate and intercooler.
Compared to the previous version, apart from a 10 HP power increase, the
engine above all offers a new lay-out and the optimization of the lubrication,
cooling, air-feeding and exhaust systems. The cylinder block, reinforced by its
"ladder frame" structure, remains the same, having exhaustively demonstrated its
reliability even under the high mechanical stresses of endurance racing.
As its key technical figures illustrate; weight/power ratio 1.14 Kg/HP,
power/displacement ratio 85 HP/litre and volume/power ratio 1.31 dm3/HP, the
new engine not only maintains the leadership in its class but actually increases
the gap between itself and its rivals. The N67 570 incorporates numerous
significant changes and optimised solutions amply tested in successful speed and
endurance racing, a highly effective test bed to explore the true limits of
power and reliability of an engine. Furthermore, FPT Industrial's great
experience in the production of the NEF Series engines is testified by the
numbers; last July the Turin Engine plant has indeed produced the one millionth
NEF engine, being in production since 2000.

Engine: FPT N67 500hp
FPT presents the N67 500hp engine, which will also be available as a package with the ZF 2800 pod drive. The N67 series of 6.7 liters six cylinders engine is available in other five formats starting from 150, 220, 280, 450, and 560hp engines. In this package the new FPT engine gives impressive results of efficiency and speeds. The new N67 500hp engine with the innovative propulsion system introduced by ZF allows the Nef Series, with six cylinders and electronic Common Rail, to extend its applicative range by entering the established Pod Drive sector. The package, which will be available starting from next January, allows reaching performances at the top of its category; the comparison with the top competitor engines equipped with Pod Drive, in fact shows that the N67 500 PD has: the best power/weight ratio 0.55 hp/kilogram, the highest specific nominal torque 175 Nm/litre, maximum torque 228 Nm/litre, power/volume ratio 0.77 hp/cubic decimetre, and the lowest specific consumption in its category 216 grams/kilowatt hour.
