New 2024 Suzuki DF90ATL: The Lightest & Most Efficient 90HP in its Class
If you are looking for the perfect balance of power and portability, the 2024 Suzuki DF90ATL is the industry leader. As the first of Suzuki’s next-generation four-strokes, the DF90A series was engineered to be the lightest 90hp 4-stroke on the market. Weighing in at just 344 lbs, it provides an incredible power-to-weight ratio that improves your boat’s hull balance, top-end speed, and overall fuel range.
Designed with a sleek, aerodynamic cowl and a high-performance 2.59:1 gear ratio, this motor delivers the low-end torque needed to pop a loaded boat on plane instantly, making it a favorite for coastal anglers and family boaters alike.
Next-Gen Technology for a Smarter Ride
The DF90ATL is packed with “Big Block” features in a compact, 1.5L frame.
-
Suzuki Lean Burn Control: This is a game-changer for your fuel bill. The system predicts fuel needs based on your real-time operating conditions, allowing the engine to run on a leaner fuel-to-air mixture. You can expect up to a 20% improvement in fuel economy at cruising speeds compared to older models.
-
Offset Driveshaft: By moving the powerhead forward, Suzuki has shifted the center of gravity over the transom. This reduces vibration, improves balance on the water, and allows the motor to be more compact.
-
Maintenance-Free Timing Chain: Unlike other brands that use rubber belts, the DF90ATL features a self-adjusting timing chain that runs in an oil bath. It never needs adjustment or replacement, saving you hundreds in long-term service costs.
-
Suzuki Easy Start System: No more holding the key. Just a quick turn and the engine’s computerized system takes over to ensure a smooth, instant start every time.
