500 series/ Prima / 80T Engine (BB)

Perkins 500/Prima were launched in 1986 and did an important step in the diesel story ; it is the first direct injection diesel engine being used on small vans (Rover Montego) Two major features are the foundation of the design :

  • A real fuel save which reduces the cost of tons per kilometre
  • Performances and driving pleasure similar to the gasoline vehicles.
Marine versions of this engines were also branded. More compact and 30% lighter than the other engines of the market, they did offer the best compromise weight/power for small pleasure boats.
