Travel operations

Achieving sustainable mobility

Lowering CO2 emissions is a crucial part in making transport sustainable, and transitioning to low- or zero emission powertrains cuts emissions – instantly. From highly efficient conventional buses and coaches that run on renewable fuels, to plug-in hybrid electric and battery electric options, and the services that tie everything together, we can provide complete solutions tailored to local and customer specific needs. And as always, without compromising on the performance, uptime, and operating economy you can expect from Scania.

Low- and zero emission powertrains

With the widest range of powertrain options on the market, we are able to provide buses and coaches that meet the needs of operators regardless of the conditions or type of operation.

Fully compatible with our combustion powertrains, renewable fuels such as biogas (LBG/CBG), hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO), and biodiesel (FAME) enable CO2 savings of up to 90%. This drastically reduces emissions, not least in high-mileage operations.

Our plug-in hybrids take those savings to yet another level, and where the prerequisites are there to move to fully electric operations, we have high-performing battery electric buses and coaches with the capacity required.

Efficiency 360

To achieve truly energy-efficient operations, one must consider the powertrain technology, have the right bus or coach for the operation, and make sure the vehicle is driven efficiently and kept in prime condition through quality maintenance.

With industry-leading powertrain efficiency - backed by the award-winning Super powertrain - specification support, digital driver support, and a range of other services, Scania addresses fuel consumption from multiple angles. This can serve to minimise environmental impact and improve operating economy or to facilitate operations by increasing operational range.

Unparalleled operating economy

At Scania, customer profitability is a key consideration when we develop our products and services. Through highly efficient, reliable, and durable vehicles, and an extensive and advanced services offering, we provide complete solutions that benefit the total operating economy of the fleet.

Lower cost through energy efficiency

Because fuel consumption is one of the main factors in operating cost, Scania´s efficient powertrains can save a lot of money. Our new generation of coaches can reduce consumption by as much as 6%, all without compromising on performance.

Further, our fleet management services, maintenance services, driver assistance systems, and driver training and support services can make a massive difference, with the latter alone typically contributing to savings of 10%.

Ensuring availability

High vehicle utilisation is key to a good operating economy. The design and reliability of Scania coaches, outstanding spare parts availability, and connected maintenance and repair services, safeguard just that. Built on proven technology and components, the dependability, durability and robustness are trademarks of Scania vehicles. The design and construction also protects sensitive and expensive components in the event of a collision, minimising time-consuming and costly repairs. And not least, state-of-the-art driver assistance systems and superb driveability can help prevent accidents altogether.

Safety and comfort in focus

Whether operating at high speeds on highways or in busy city environments, road safety is of the utmost importance – protecting passengers and the driver, as well as other road users. With state-of-the-art safety systems and features, our buses and coaches help prevent accidents and minimise damage if an incident occurs. Digital services and additional design features contribute further, while also providing the foundation for a pleasant passenger experience.

Safer by design

In travel operations, safety is often about both highway and inner-city traffic. To prevent accidents, Scania coaches have built-in advanced safety systems and features, helping increase driver awareness or even to assist in controlling the vehicle when needed.

Lane Departure Warning, Vulnerable Road User Detection, Advanced Emergency Braking, and Speed Control are just a few of the active functionalities that complement physical design structures that limits deformation and prevents passenger cars from sliding under the vehicle.

A first-class driver area

At Scania, we have developed a driver area we believe is industry leading. It offers the best possible work environment in terms of ergonomics, reachability, and comfort.

Beyond that, the powerful powertrain and overall well-balanced vehicle make for outstanding drivability. Coupled with the digital driver display, advanced driver assistance systems, and general quality feel, it is easy to understand why drivers enjoy driving a Scania.

A comfortable passenger experience

Passengers should be able to read, work, watch a film, or rest in a calm environment. The comfortable ride characteristics offered by Scania buses and coaches are achieved through a forgiving suspension, efficient gearboxes with smooth transmissions, powerful engines, and a well-balanced weight distribution.

Passenger comfort is further improved by the excellent driveability, driver support functionalities, and the low noise and vibration levels – particularly in our gas-, plug-in hybrid electric-, or fully electric vehicles.

Bus and coach portfolio

Our product portfolio consists of products with multiple options, allowing for custom configurations that enable operators to meet the specific needs of their travel operations.

Meet the Scania Super and plug-in hybrid powertrains

Our new powertrain platform takes people transport to the next level. Based on the award-winning Super powertrain for Scania trucks, it offers the perfect balance between efficiency and performance — making transport operations more profitable and more sustainable.

The Scania Super delivers 8% fuel savings in combustion configuration alone, with the plug-in hybrid variant, that also offers up to 80 km in electric mode, enables savings of up to 47%.
