For Scania’s recent launch of its new truck range based on V8 engines, the company chose to webcast the press conference. A hundred tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions were avoided not having the 200 registered journalists travel to Södertälje, Sweden, by air.
The new V8 trucks stand out on the road with exterior styling details such as V8 badges, black grilles, chromium details, specially designed tailpipes and xenon headlamps.
The world’s most powerful – Scania’s R-series is now gaining an even more high-powered V8 as its flagship model.
Combining high performance with strict environmental standards was the focus of Scania’s development work for the new V8 engine.
For more than six months, Daniel Pereira Casalinho has been hauling ice cream, vegetables and paper all over Europe in the world’s most powerful truck. The new Scania V8 has become king of the mountains on his routes.
