Anyone familiar with the Volvo D3-110?

This is their new fancy "modern" technology diesel. I see it is OEM for new Halberg-Rassey and Swans.

It's a compact, 5 cylinder, 80-ish HP, relatively low revs (3000 rpm cruise). My guess it is a really smooth, quiet, low vibration engine. Can anyone confirm that?

It is turbocharged.

I am still going back and forth on engines. Seems like it is hard to get a "new" marine engine greater than 60hp that isnt turbocharged. Westerbeke and Perkins seem to be the only "mainstream" manufacturer of naturally aspirated engines in that range.
