Malibu Monsoon Engines

Continuing on the Axis mantra to provide exceptional value with next-generation performance, your Axis is powered by Malibu Monsoon Engines. Designed to bring even better reliability, performance, fuel economy, and sound reduction, the state-of-the-art, direct-injection M6Di® and M5Di® engines are manufactured in-house to create the best engines at the best value for you.

Powered by GM® Marine

We work hand-in-hand with industry leaders like GM® Marine to design and develop a unique line of in-board engines to give your boat the power it deserves. These state-of-the-art, direct-injection engines are manufactured in-house at our dedicated 70,000-square-foot Tennessee plant adjacent to Axis' headquarters.

Fuel Efficient

Direct Injection means the engine bypasses the air intake and injects fuel directly into the combustion chamber, improving fuel economy. This allows for more precise fuel burn, which equals more savings at the pump.

FEAD®

What is FEAD®? It stands for Front-End Accessory Drive, and it's a custom cast that features a fully integrated cooling system where engine oil and transmission fluid temperatures are controlled more easily and more environmentally friendly.

Malibu's Monsoon line of engines were specifically built for watersports giving you maximum power early in the torque curve to give you a boat that never bogs down — even with a boat full of ballast and friends.
