Packed with innovative engineering including our pioneering Lean Burn Control technology. Our lightweight sports engines are small in size, but big in performance.
Cleaner, More Efficient Operation
Suzuki utilizes a number of its advanced technologies to deliver cleaner, more efficient operation that conforms to the Recreational Craft Directive (RCD) – Directive 2003/44EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, and has received three-star ratings from the California Air Resources Board (CARB).
- High performance 12-valve DOHC engine
- High Energy Rotation delivers power to move heavy boats
- Superior maneuverability, especially at low speeds
- Suzuki's Lean Burn technology delivers top level fuel efficiency
- Lightest and most compact outboards in the 44.1kW (60PS) and 36.8kW (50PS) high thrust classes.
- According to in-house investigations as of July 2013.

Take Control With A Suzuki High Thrust Outboard
High Energy Rotation
The DF60AV/50AV are high thrust versions of the standard DF60A/50A featuring Suzuki's High Energy Rotation system. These outboards are equipped with lower units based on those found on the DF140A, specially engineered with a large 2.42 gear ratio that turns a bigger 14-inch prop. The system delivers a 42% increase in forward thrust and 136% in reverse providing the propulsion you need for moving heavy boats.* This design gives you more precise control when maneuvering, superior low speed handling, better hole shots, and plenty of power to move and maneuver with a heavy load. As you would expect, being from Suzuki, both of these outboards are designed from the ground up to be compact and lightweight. And when compared to other high thrust models in their respective power classes, each takes the title for being both the lightest and most compact.
Suzuki Troll Mode System
Providing fine control over engine speed at low rpm, this easy to use system is standard on tiller handle models and available as an option on remote control versions. An independent control switch allows adjustment in increments of 50 rpm over a range from idle to 1,200 rpm. The system includes a specified tachometer and is also compatible with Suzuki's SMIS*3 digital gauges and "dual scale" analog gauges.

SELF-ADJUSTING TIMING CHAIN
The original DF60A was the first four-stroke to feature a timing chain in the 44.1kW (60PS) class, so it's only natural that the DF60AV is equipped with the same. The chain is oil bathed and is equipped with an automatic hydraulic tensioner that maintains proper chain adjustment for maintenance free operation.
Suzuki Anti-Corrosion System
Suzuki protects the outboard's exterior from harmful corrosion with its own specially formulated anti-corrosion finish. Applying the finish directly to the outboard's aluminum surface, allows maximum bonding of the finish to the surface to increase durability and help protect parts that are constantly exposed to saltwater.
