Scania K-chassis
Low entry
The low entry Scania K-chassis meet the needs of operators on every continent. With design and production control over chassis, powertrain, and driver area, Scania has developed an ideal platform for highly reliable, powerful, and energy efficient buses.
Quality chassis frame
The strong front axle and ability to use wide tyres give a load capacity of 8.2 tonnes, allowing high passenger capacity and optimised weight distribution between the front- and rear axles, important not least for gas- and electric buses. Available with rigid- or independent front suspension, the latter offers excellent passenger comfort and, by enabling a wide aisle (900 mm), also provides layout possibilities that increase passenger flow, space and accessibility. Further, chassis weight is kept down without compromising on safety or robustness.
Advanced powertrain technology
Scania´s dependable powertrains are available in battery electric and ICE variants, both offering highly energy efficient propulsion. While the BEV uses a powerful 300 kW (peak) e-machine, the combustion powertrains come in a range of power options to suit local and operational needs.
Sustainable range
The battery electric variants can be specified with up to 520 kWh of installed energy, providing a range of over 500 km in optimal conditions. Our batteries are developed with responsibility as a guiding star, aiming for environmental- and social sustainability in the production process as well as in the supply chain. Produced with fossil-free electricity in northern Sweden, their carbon footprint is only around one third of comparable industry batteries. And with cells designed to power heavy commercial vehicles for 1,5 million kilometers, they are of premium quality and built to last.
Unrivalled uptime
Well-designed and built on proven technology and components, the Scania K-chassis are both dependable and robust. Safety systems and digital services help prevent accidents, and sensitive and expensive components are protected in the event of a collision, avoiding costly and time-consuming repairs. Uptime services help minimise downtime and, when needed, remote diagnostics and excellent parts availability can rapidly get the bus back on the road.
A first-class driving experience
An overall well-balanced vehicle, a powerful and reliable powertrain, good visibility, and a great turning radius make for excellent drivability. Additionally, the advanced driver assistance systems enhance control through assisted steering and braking, with high levels of ergonomics and comfort, the digital interface, and the overall quality feel further adding to the driving experience. The Smart Dash gives drivers instant access to valuable insight that promotes informed, efficient and safe driving, while providing seamless integration with digital fleet management.
Safety in focus
Scania´s wide range of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) supports the driver, whether on the open highway or in busy city environments. The various functions increase road safety by keeping the driver alert and the vehicle in the right position, while also controlling the speed and distance from other road users.
Power options (EU6)
The low entry Scania K-chassis is available in 2-axle, 3-axle and articulated versions, both with independent front suspension or rigid front axle. For more products suited for urban operations, see also Scania low floor C-chassis and Scania high floor K-chassis.
