Scania P-series available with bigger engines

Together, Scania’s P-series and the new high-torque 13-litre EGR engines open new potential to specify compact, powerful trucks that are highly competitive in terms of weight. EGR technology combines excellent fuel economy with the convenience of not requiring additives, leaving space on the chassis for extra fuel or other equipment. The broad P-series cab range enables space to be optimised for a multitude of applications.

Scania to deliver 91 trucks to the Finnish Defence Forces

Your vehicle in the 2010 calendar?

Every year the Scania calendar has a theme. The 2009 calendar focuses on the day-to-day work of drivers. For each month, a number of photos tell a little story behind the main photo itself. In 2008 the theme was “making a difference”. What the theme for 2010 will be is still a carefully guarded secret.

Selected for the calendar

Scania owners from all over the world have submitted thousands of photos to the Favoritescania.com website. Among the contributors was German superstructure company Moog, and now one of the company’s deliveries will be part of the 2009 Scania calendar.
