The biggest Scania truck with the most powerful Scania engine. An awesome combination for high-productivity prestigious transportation.
The new range builds upon Scania's modular engine concept, which has been complete since the introduction of the new five-cylinder unit in 2004. The entire range utilises the same combustion chamber, thus enabling Scania to focus and concentrate its injection and combustion processes on a single design. This modular philosophy also means that a large number of engine components are shared between the different models, thereby making training, servicing and parts supply highly efficient. Technology
Included in the range is a new six-speed gearbox, designated the G670, which provides a high-torque transmission unit for the urban distribution sector. With a three-gate shift pattern as per a six-speed passenger car, this gearbox is supplied by ZF and represents a weight saving of 87 kilogrammes compared to the eight-speed gearbox in the present range.
The new range is a completely new family of gearboxes which are both lighter and stronger than current models. Scania Opticruise and the Scania Retarder are available as options in all units except for the G670 and GR905 (Retarder only). When fitted, both Scania Opticruise and the Scania Retarder are fully integrated into the transmission through Scania's CAN-bus system.
The range of efficiency-enhancing measures announced include extended air deflectors to help improve airflow behind the cab of a tractor unit, a dashboard display giving levels of engine oil and AdBlue, a low windscreen washer fluid level display and a warning alerting the driver should the lights remain on when the ignition is turned off.
