Scania announced the expansion of its heavy truck line with the introduction of the new Scania Super 11-liter range, scheduled to debut at the Fenatran 2026 fair.
The manufacturer's main purpose in launching this novelty is to meet the needs of different segments of the Brazilian transport sector with greater accuracy. These niches seek to combine high operational efficiency, mechanical simplicity, and robustness for daily use on both highways and in urban areas.
With this expansion, the 11-liter engine now offers power options of 390 hp and 430 hp. These new engines will be available in various traction and axle configurations. This includes 4x2 and 6x2 models, aimed at the largest portion of the general cargo and e-commerce market, as well as more specialized options, such as the 6x4, suitable for light civil construction, and the 8x2 version, recommended for the specific transport of horticultural and refrigerated products.
To manage all this power, the Opticruise G25 automated gearbox, which has 14 gears, was selected.
Technologically, the mechanical assembly incorporates significant brand advancements. A notable feature is the variable valve timing (VVT) system, which adjusts valve synchronization in real time to optimize energy consumption and reduce pollutant emissions. Another crucial element is the enhanced regenerative braking system, which acts directly on the engine to safely slow down the vehicle, preserving conventional brakes and minimizing premature part wear.
The manufacturer also placed great importance on simplifying maintenance, with the aim of increasing vehicle availability in customers' fleets. The oil and fuel filters were repositioned side by side in a cooler area of the block, facilitating quick changes without needing to wait for the engine to cool down completely. Additionally, a dedicated fuel optimization unit increases diesel utilization from 87% to 97%, ensuring greater autonomy on long trips or freeing up more space for carrying payload.
