TAD870-873VE is a powerful, reliable and economical off-road Diesel Engine range built on the Volvo Group in-line six concept.

Low cost of ownership

World class fuel efficiency combined with a reliable exhaust after treatment system gives high up time as well as low cost of ownership. No downtime for regeneration or decreased service intervals.

Compact & simple installation

SCR technology selected by Volvo does not increase amount of cooling capacity needed. As optional equipment all material needed in order to install the engine can be ordered from Volvo Penta. Installation guidelines as well as drawings and CAD models are easy to access. The result is an engine and after treatment system that is easy to install.

Durability & low noise

Long experience with SCR systems in combination with base engine development reduces risk of downtime. Well-balanced to produce smooth operation with low noise.

Power & torque

Maximum power and torque available at low rpm. As a result noise as well as fuel consumption is very low. Useful engine speed for the TAD870-873VE is due to power and torque layout very flexible.

Low exhaust emission

Efficient injection as well as robust engine design in combination with optimized SCR technology and a cooled EGR contributes to excellent combustion and low fuel consumption.

Easy service & maintenance

Easily accessible service and maintenance points contribute to the ease of service of the engine. As optional equipment possible to remote mount filters and service points. Up to 1000 hour oil change interval.
