The V8 Engine family

The Scania V8 is the high-performance benchmark. It’s the perfect fit for operations that require the efficiency, power and performance that only a V8 can deliver. The updated range of Euro 6 V8 engines are approved to run on renewable fuels. Choose between 530 hp, 590 hp, 660 hp or 770 hp outputs. The mighty 770 hp engine is the world’s strongest commercially produced truck engine. With an impressive torque of 3700 Nm, hills will never be as steep as before. Our V8 engine family provides the power needed for the job. With outstanding operating economy and uptime.

The new Scania Opticruise gearbox

And that’s not all – premium power needs a premium gearbox . Scania’s new Opticruise gearbox features improved gearshifting in combination with better fuel consumption and excellent comfort. The new range of gearboxes are designed for both driveability and sustainability. The wider gear ratio spread and fewer internal losses provides up to 1% fuel saving potential. On top of this higher uptime with an oil change interval of up to one million km. All this to ensure that your truck is performing – every hour and every day. The new Scania Opticruise gearbox is available for all V8 engines up to 660 hp.

Exterior styling
