Honda Marine Europe is launching enhancements for its 4-cylinder and V6 outboard engines at Genoa International Boat Show 2025.
The enhanced engines feature upgraded technology, additional Honda features and a new exterior. They are available with either Honda drive-by-wire or mechanical control systems.
Drive-by-wire models are updated to include the same automatic tilt, trim support and cruise control features found on the flagship BF350 V8.
In addition to the enhanced 4-cylinder and V6 engines, Honda is also introducing a Sporty White version of its BF350 V8 outboard.
We are launching our enhanced 4-cylinder and V6 outboard engines to answer the demands of the evolving engine market.

“We are launching our enhanced 4-cylinder and V6 outboard engines to answer the demands of the evolving engine market for premium performance and an exceptional boating experience,” said Francesco Pichelli, head of sales, Honda Marine Europe.
“We are committed to continued growth in the marine sector across Honda, building on the positive momentum generated by the launch of the BF350 V8.”
Honda Marine has also updated several features on its high-power models to improve engine performance and make operation easier and intuitive.
Components have been upgraded to ensure greater durability and reliability, while further updates have been made for easier engine installation and maintenance.
Strengthened outboard line-up
The new outboards incorporate Honda exclusives including Boosted Low Speed Torque (BLAST) that advances the ignition curve for improved holeshot performance and Variable Valve Timing and Electronic Control (VTEC) that provides smooth power delivery throughout the engine’s operating range, delivering more power with increased fuel efficiency.
“With our strengthened outboard line-up, Honda Marine Europe can solidify and grow our alliances with our trusted boatbuilders and other partners to meet the preferences and priorities of our customers with smart, advanced technology and turnkey, whole boat solutions with pre-paired engine and boat configurations,” added Pichelli.
Genoa International Boat Show takes place from September 18 to 23 2025.
