Electric bus and coach solutions
Unique solutions for unique needs
Electrification is about more than the vehicles – it’s everything from optimising the strategy and approach to making sure operations run smoothly. We work closely with our customers to understand the prerequisites and requirements, and provide solutions designed for each specific need.
Whether it be pre-analysis of routes and energy access, specifying the buses or coaches, or building and maintaining the charging infrastructure - or even financing the entire investment - Scania is there to support with expertise, cutting-edge analytical tools, and the products and services needed.
A full solution from Scania
The buses and coaches we offer are part of a complete e-mobility solution covering vehicles, services and systems. All integrated, all tailor-made for each need and demand, and with Scania taking full responsibility for every part of it.
Covering every need
Want help with charging infrastructure planning? Need introductions to the right green energy partner? Would you benefit from operational planning support? Want to finance not only vehicles, but also charging infrastructure? Is repair and maintenance staff in place or would a Scania workshop on your premises be helpful? No matter the context – we’ve got you covered.
Optimised total cost of ownership
The full solution is also what determines the operating economy. When factoring in every detail in the long-term instead of looking at individual factors in the short-term – it’s clear that the Scania focus on energy efficiency, reliability and smart digital services are all key for providing the best return-on-investment.

Smart, connected and future proof
Connected digital solutions enhance your vehicles with everything from advanced safety features and remote diagnostics, to real-time maps and geofencing functionality. And to help drivers quickly adopt the new technology, the Smart Dash provides the ultimate interface for confident electric operation in every sense – with a seamless user centric and dynamic approach. With continuous wireless updates and full integration in your fleet management tools – your are future proof from the start.
Even safer – inside and out
Our multiple advanced state-of-the-art driver assistance systems (ADAS) provide the safest possible operation for the driver, the passengers and surrounding road users– while of course meeting the strict EU safety regulations for heavy commercial vehicles.
Fast, safe and flexible charging
Scania´s charging solutions are continuously improved. Our charging interfaces, battery management system, and battery packs allow for charging speeds of up to 325 kW, providing short charging time and high vehicle availability. All while ensuring protection against hazards and also being both reliable and durable, also in harsh environments. With the option to place the charging port in either the front (195 kW) or rear (325 kW), the vehicles can be specified according to particular requirements.
Flexibility and high performance
Battery electric buses and coaches from Scania come with several power options – 240 kW, 270 kW, 300 kW and 330 kW (continuous) – providing flexibility to meet the needs of various operating assignments and conditions. The advanced e-machine and its integrated two or four-speed gearbox results in a highly energy-efficient powertrain that offers the power and startability needed, even in hills or heavy-duty operations. Fully harmonised in our battery electric platform, it comes with integrated cooling- and control systems that meet the highest cyber security demands.
