SUZUKI 250 KURO

With its hood characterized by its design and matte black color, the manufacturer aimed to sign the sporty performance and the "racing" spirit of this engine. Targeting customers seeking a contemporary, sporty, and sleek design, it will perfectly fit boats with a stealthy line, like the Iron 707 on which it is offered as a package version.

Kuro, a new 250 hp engine with a sporty design serving performance.
Aiming at customers looking for a sporty design, the primary asset of this engine is its matte “ghost” black color popular in the racing world, but still rare in the marine engine sector. Named “Kuro,” meaning deep black in Japanese, the DF250 kanji also expresses elegance and refinement in Japanese literature.

A racing-look engine, the new Suzuki DF250 is a 24-valve V6 with electronic fuel injection and 4023 cm3 displacement, based on the technologies that have built Suzuki's reputation. It offers enhanced performance thanks to development made on the electronic control unit. Its performance range widens from 5700 to 6300 rpm.

Furthermore, the front shape of the lower unit casing has been designed inspired by lower units used in powerboat racing to improve water penetration. The placement and lines of the water intakes have been studied to enhance navigation performance by preventing cavitation. The lateral asymmetry of the skeg provides better steering stability.

Finally, the air intake grille under the hood has been redesigned to increase airflow and accelerate engine cooling.

This new engine also benefits from Suzuki technologies' strengths, such as offset with its 2-stage reduction system to optimize propeller efficiency. This Suzuki-exclusive technology with the gearcase shifted forward gives the engine its compact character and, above all, improves the boat-engine system's center of gravity. The Suzuki Precision Control (SPC) electronic throttle remotely controls the engine via an electric signal (instead of traditional mechanical control cables), enabling smoother acceleration and deceleration. Lastly, the Kuro also features all other functionalities offered by the manufacturer, such as auto-trim, troll mode, and the mobile diagnostic system +.
