FAQ
Life cycle value
- Which advantages does YANMAR offer with regard to my life cycle costs?
-
Although there are many, the most significant advantage is perhaps the time between overhauls. YANMAR is known for its high engine quality and reliability. In line with this reputation, the time between overhauls and life time of parts are significantly longer.
- Why is the time between overhauls longer?
-
Because we only use high-quality and wear-resistant materials and follow strict quality and testing procedures.

-
There is no straightforward answer to this question. Fuel consumption depends on the operational profile of your vessel and therefore we advise you to contact our sales representatives here.
