MALIBU MONSOON ENGINES
DESIGNED, BUILT AND BACKED BY MALIBU
The new Malibu Monsoon line of engines, the M5Di, M6Di, and the LT4, were developed by Malibu to offer unmatched performance, fuel economy, reliability and sound reduction.
Malibu was able to accomplish this feat by bringing engine production in-house. The engine experts at Malibu worked with industry leaders like GM® Marine, Roush®, Davinci®, and McLaren Engineering® to design and perform the research and development necessary to introduce a line of in-board engines to the towboat industry like no other.
MALIBU Monsoon M6Di
-
TORQUE - 460 FT-LBS @ 3800 rpm
POWER - 430 HP @ 5600 rpm
Designed to be the standard engine in some of largest Malibu boats and the first step up in the powertrain options, the M6Di still has the lowest sound level at various RPMs and fuel economy levels comparable to smaller engines.
MALIBU Monsoon LT4
-
TORQUE - 606 FT-LBS @ 3800 rpm
POWER - 607 HP @ 5600 rpm
Designed to deliver torque at low RPMS, the Malibu Monsoon LT4™ brings you all the power you need for a full day on the water you can rely on.
LET’S Talk Torque
It’s not how fast you can pull a rider or skier (that’s horse power), it’s about getting the rider out of the hole quickly and consistently with a boat full of ballast and friends – and that’s all about torque curve. This has been the driving factor behind the Malibu Monsoon direct injection engines. M5Di, M6Di & LT4 are tailor made by Malibu for water sports – meaning maximum power is delivered early in the torque curve to give you a boat that never bogs down. The Monsoon’s custom tailored gear ratios act as torque multipliers to deliver even more power when you need it.
REST ASSURED, YOU'RE COVERED
Malibu’s 5 Year warranty
Your new Malibu is covered from bow to stern with an Australian manufacturer-supported warranty. You can rest assured we stand proudly behind every boat we make, and coverage is supported Australia-wide through our dealer network.
