From July 11 to 13, the Weichai 2025 Qingdao International Yacht Conference, exclusively sponsored by Weichai, was held at the Qingdao International Convention Center. The conference focused on the theme of "Marine Economy, Technological Innovation, Industrial upgrading" and covered sections such as the yacht show, high-end forums, water sports events, and business negotiations.

Weichai's full range of yacht power was on display, featuring strong power, green energy efficiency, stability and reliability, intelligent connectivity, etc. The powerful "Chinese engine" contributes to the high-quality development of the yacht industry.

The full range of Weichai products

High-end yacht power on display

At the exhibition site, representatives of Weichai's M series of high-end marine power products - 16M23, 6M21, 6M10S, etc. stand proudly. The products undergo rigorous durability tests, have a pure copper anti-corrosion design for the cooling system, and are reinforced with vermicular graphite cast iron body, cylinder head and alloy steel crank connecting rod mechanism, making them more reliable; 2200bar high-pressure injection technology, combustion optimization, strategy optimization, and significant advantages in fuel economy, environmental protection and comfort.

Especially the new generation 16M23 high-end marine power, which is making its debut, is the "influence leader" of the entire show. The product has a rated power of 2,000kW and a maximum torque of 8450N·m, and uses high-pressure injection technology and advanced simulation technology to achieve efficient combustion; The core components such as the engine block, crankshaft, piston and connecting rod have a high safety factor, meeting the requirements of high-power and high-speed applications; The exhaust system uses three-layer wall insulation technology, pre-spray calibration, intake silencing and other low-noise designs to effectively reduce the overall noise of the machine.

Acoustic gen-sets for boats

Super yacht’s "Chinese Heart"

Weichai's acoustic gen-set products also made an appearance at the exhibition, featuring electronically controlled high-pressure common rail technology with rapid transient response; Advanced metal soundproof enclosures, top-notch sound-absorbing and noise-reducing materials, with noise as low as 70 decibels, become quieter and more comfortable. Currently, Weichai Marine diesel engines and silent units are respectively installed on high-end yachts such as Ferretti F580 and INFYNITO 90, equipping super yachts with a strong "Chinese heart".

The propulsion system for yachts shines on the stage

Provide overall solutions for customers

At the scene, the Weichai 6M21 Marine propulsion system also attracted a large number of customers. The product employs advanced technologies such as digital precision design of surface propellers, vector propulsion of drive units, integrated intelligent design of control systems, and high-precision pressure and flow control of hydraulic systems, ensuring better adaptability, higher reliability and higher efficiency of the product.

At the exhibition site, multiple boat models from Champion Boats, a subsidiary of Weichai, were showcased together. Boats powered by Weichai are powerful and fuel-efficient, and have been widely used in yachts, recreational boats, passenger ships, official vessels, etc.

Weichai's new energy power batteries have won the hearts of many fans

Contributing to the green transformation of the yacht industry

At the exhibition site, Weichai's 10.6kWh Marine LFP battery pack also became the focus of attention for the attendees. Weichai focuses on the research and development and innovation of products in the field of Marine new energy, flexibly customizes and develops for customers, and creates high-quality and high-efficiency pure battery power and hybrid power system solutions.
