Six-in-a-row: Scania Super wins Green Truck test 2022

6 May 2022

  • Scania wins the Green Truck comparison test for the sixth year running
  • This year the new 13-litre Super-based powertrain truck claimed the prize
  • The Green Truck test aims to find the most efficient heavy truck across a 340km test route

 

Södertälje, UK, 6 May 2022: Scania has won the prestigious Green Truck accolade for the sixth year in a row.

 

This year a new 13-litre Super-based powertrain truck was entered and claimed the overall prize thanks to its outstanding efficiency and fuel performance.

 

Stefan Dorski, Senior Vice President and Head of Scania Trucks, said: “Winning Green Truck is testament to our achievements and a hallmark for the value that Scania offers. I am extremely pleased that a Scania is ranked as the most transport-efficient truck for the sixth year in a row.

 

“Our Super-based powertrain trucks have the same specifications and fuel-saving features that we deliver to our customers, which make them the real winners here.

 

“It has brought a completely new perfor­mance level to the market, with our customers now benefiting from its 8% fuel savings.”

 

The Green Truck comparison test is organised by the leading German trade magazines Trucker and Verkehrs­Rundschau.

 

It aims to identify the most efficient heavy truck available by using a formula that considers fuel consumption and average speed. Each truck was required to be a 500hp, 4x2 semi-trailer with a total weight of 32 tonnes.  

 

They are then rigorously tested and monitored on the same 340km route on Germany’s highways. It is run in parallel alongside a reference truck so factors that could influence the results are considered and compensated for.
