Azipod propulsion system is the latest invention used in merchant shipping. The azipod consists of a pod and a propeller which hang outside the ship's hull and can rotate 306 degrees. This makes the ship more manouverable as it can rotate 360 degrees around itself very quickly. This system uses electric generators, thus it is more fuel efficient and it uses less space.
