Am MTU-Stand auf der Monaco Yacht Show wird das Modell eines 20V 4000 M93-Motors als Hybrid-Antrieb zu sehen sein. Die Dieselmotoren des Typs MTU 4000 M93 sind leistungsstark, sauber, und bieten ein hervorragendes Leistungs-Gewicht, was den Motoren zu den höchsten Beschleunigungswerten in ihrer Klasse verhilft. Mit 12-, 16- und 20-Zylinderversionen decken sie einen Leistungsbereich von 2.340 bis 4.300 kW ab. On the Monaco Yacht Show on the MTU Stand there will be a model of an MTU Type 20V 4000 M93 engine combined with an electric motor in a hybrid configuration. Series 4000 M93 MTU diesel engines are powerful, clean and they boast an outstanding power-to-weight ratio which puts them at the top of their class for acceleration. Available in 12, 16 and 20-cylinder versions, they cover a performance range from 2,340 to 4,300 kW (3,140 to 5,770 bhp). Un moteur 20V 4000 M93 sera présenté en tant que propulsion hybride au stand MTU du Monaco Yacht Show. Les moteurs diesel de type MTU 4000 M93 sont puissants, propres et offrent un excellent rapport puissance-poids ce qui leur confère les valeurs d'accélération maximales dans leur catégorie. Avec les versions 12, 16 et 20 cylindres, ils couvrent une gamme de puissance de 2340 à 4300 kW.

Rolls-Royce is presenting MTU propulsion systems and automation products for megayachts at the Yacht Show in Monaco. On show on Stand QC9 on the Quai Chicane there will be a model of an MTU Type 20V 4000 M93 engine combined with an electric motor in a hybrid configuration. Visitors will be shown a variety of drive modes from silent mode through to electric mode. The MTU brand is part of Rolls-Royce Power Systems within the Land & Sea division of Rolls-Royce.
MTU supplies propulsion systems and complete system engineering solutions for megayachts from a single source, the interfaces of which have been engineered to deliver optimum performance. The individually designed MTU drive systems are based on the powerful and low-emission Series 2000, 4000, 1163 and 8000 diesel engines with power outputs right up to 10,000 kW. In addition to diesel-mechanical and diesel-electric propulsion systems, MTU will be presenting bespoke E-Drive system solutions incorporating diesel engines and electric motors, energy storage batteries, power electronics, control systems and gearboxes. “For yacht owners, that means more economy and comfort due to lower fuel consumption, less noise and reduced vibration,” explains Nadine Buhmann, Head of Marine and Offshore Business at MTU. The MTU active noise reduction solutions for vessels will also be on show in Monaco.
As a full system supplier, MTU offers all the components required for the monitoring and remote control of the propulsion systems. In the case of combined propulsion systems and E-Drive systems in particular, the monitoring and control of the individual operating modes can be a considerable challenge. This is an area in which MTU can draw on in-depth expertise and many years of experience, enabling the company to assist clients by providing them with optimum advice and professional support as needed.
The MTU Premium Yacht Service is a perfect fit for the demands of discerning clients. The service and support package includes all MTU ValueCare products and can be precisely tailored to the individual client’s wishes. MTU thus offers clients in the luxury yacht sector an expanded global support service for the full life of the engine. World-wide, all owners of yachts with MTU engines can benefit from the new extended warranty of up to eleven years and individually customisable maintenance contracts. The Customer Assistance Centre guarantees rapid availability anywhere in the world – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Visitors to the show can find out all about the numerous specially co-ordinated customer service and support options in the Premium Yacht Service Lounge.
Some of the megayachts on view at the Yacht Show in Monaco are fitted out with MTU engines, among them the 60-metre “FB255 M/Y Formosa” (two x MTU 12V 4000 M53 engines) by Benetti, the 50-metre M/Y “Ann G” (twin MTU 16V 4000 units) made by Heesen, and the 42-metre “Serenity” from Mondomarine (two MTU 12V 2000 M72 engines) being unveiled by Benetti for the first time.
