The DF200AP, redefines lightweight outboard performance, delivering impressive acceleration and low-end torque whilst boasting more fuel efficiency. Here are our 9 reasons why the Suzuki DF200AP is the ultimate outboard motor.
Reason 1 - Lean Burn Control System
The Suzuki Lean Burn Control System is an intelligent fuel delivery system that achieves remarkable improvements in fuel consumption making fuel-efficient four-stroke outboards even more economical. Monitoring engine performance and operating conditions in real-time, the system uses the 32-bit onboard ECM to predict fuel needs and deliver a leaner, more precise fuel mixture across the outboard's operating range. The results show significant improvements in fuel economy across the entire powerband, including the cruising range where the engine is used a majority of the time.
Reason 2 - Large reduction gear ratio
A large reduction gear ratio delivers great power output.
A two–stage gear reduction system delivers a large reduction gear ratio 2.50:1.
Reason 3 - Largest Displacement in its Class
Displacement has a direct effect on acceleration and torque. Generally speaking, the more the higher. For that reason, the DF200A is designed with a 2,867cm3 displacement making it the largest available in the 147kW (200PS) four-cylinder four-stroke class.
Reason 4 - Quiet Operation
Suzuki four-stroke outboards have long been noted for their exceptionally quiet operation. Suzuki engineers go to great lengths incorporating methods designed to keep outboard operation as quiet as possible.
Reason 5 - Semi–Direct Air Intake System
The cover on the DF200A has a modern upswept design giving it an innovative look. Underneath the looks though, the design is all about function. Incorporated into the cowl is a semi-direct air intake system that delivers cooler air directly to the engine's tuned multi-stage induction module. Engines breathing cooler air are able to increase operating efficiency resulting in greater acceleration and top-end speed.
The cover's design also helps reducing the temperature inside of the engine with ports that allow the rotating flywheel to push warm air inside of the cover to the outside

Reason 6 - High Compression Ratio
Drawing upon our experience building race engines for motorsports, Suzuki engineers have designed the DF200A's in-line four-cylinder engine with a higher compression ratio of 10.2:1. The higher compression ratio delivers a noticeable improvement in performance and power output from the engine's 2,867cm3 displacement.
Reason 7 - Suzuki Precision Control (Electronic Throttle and Shift Systems)
Suzuki Precision Control is a computer–based throttle and shift system that replaces mechanical control cables with a digital fly-by-wire system to eliminate friction and resistance in the controls.
Reason 8 - Suzuki Selective Rotation
Once requiring the purchase of a dedicated counter–rotation model, Suzuki’s innovative Suzuki Selective Rotation eliminates that need by incorporating a special, unified design of gears, shaft, and bearings in the lower unit that allow the outboard to operate reliably and efficiently in either direction.
Reason 9 - New Attractive Accessories
Suzuki Keyless Start System (Optional)
Suzuki’s Keyless Start system utilises a proximity key – fob that transmits an access code to the engines starting system.
Multi-Function Gauge
Our new generation gauge is the first in its class with a genuine colour display as standard, as well as enabling you to check all the performance information with just one gauge at a glance.
