Scania Chassis Assembly ready for boom of electric trucks
The year 2023 will go down in Scania's history as the year that electrification truly happened. A new battery cell co-developed with Northvolt that will last the truck’s lifetime, tests of Megawatt Charging System with ABB, and the Battery Assembly was set up adjacent to the Chassis Assembly. The latter had its greatest redesign since it was built in the 1960s, both the actual building and the people working there. The Chassis Assembly plant in Södertälje, Sweden started producing electrical trucks in 2021. As the demand for electric trucks continues to increase, the factory needed to be adapted to handle the weight and technology of future electric trucks. “And not only the building,” says Mostafa Toweny, Project Manager E-mobility, “but the people working there as well.”The year 2023 will go down in Scania's history as the year that electrification truly happened.

“We’re future-proofing our bus fleet. That’s good for our customers and for society.”
The new propulsion unit at the core of the new battery-electric bus platform promises to be the beating, emission-free heart of our buses for many years to come. In October, Scania will unveil its next generation battery-electric vehicle (BEV) bus platform at the Busworld trade fair in Brussels. It’s been a major project of many moving parts. One of the most significant of those is the updated electric propulsion unit (aka: electric powertrain).The new propulsion unit at the core of the new battery-electric bus platform promises to be the beating, emission-free heart of our buses for many years to come.
