the buffalo
The Scania Heavy Tipper engineered to suit the West African mining operations is highly adaptable with great driveability and visibility. It's a well-balanced all round premium cab manufactured to perfection, to suite your business specific needs.
The Buffalo range of Scania trucks brings a distinctive combination of comfort and elegance inside and out. Offering robust options as well as a spacious cab, making it a truly efficient machine for your mine operations.
Driving, living, resting
A premium working cab with easy access, generous storage options and world-class resting possibilities. With an optimised dashboard and on-board entertainment, life on the road just got more comfortable.
It is vital to have the possibility of recharging your batteries on hard and long working days. In our trucks you can choose between a wide range of comfortable resting and sleeper options.
Your daytime office
Scania's starting point when designing the G-series cab interior was to optimise the driver’s position and the modular instrument panel. And with a larger display, improved graphics and intuitive controls at your fingertips, you can keep your full attention on the challenge ahead.
Features such as driver seat positioning, lowered side window, slim design of the A-pillars and a larger surface area of glass, bring a whole new level of visibility.
The dashboard has also been lowered slightly to enhance forward visibility.
Storage options
Considerable front roof storage with the normal roof for the day cab, together with the storage bar on the rear wall featuring plenty of space to store helmets, gloves and other belongings.
The rear-wall storage module enables items to be stored in an orderly way to make it easy to find the right things when needed, resulting in a tidy and pleasant working environment.
Smart storage space that can be accessed from both inside and outside the cab. Available for both day and sleeper cabs.
Tailor the storage after your needs.
Improved Robustness
To handle the weight of the materials you carry, the Buffalo has been reinforced to improve its robustness. The front axle has been made stronger by increasing the track width to carry more tonne capacity. The Buffalo comes fitted with new 5x48/100 parabolic springs that improve stability for your mine operations.
Shock absorbers have also been fitted on both axles to allow better weight management while transporting on the mines. Whether in-pit our out-pit, the Buffalo has you covered.
