The next-generation Scania engine establishes new norms for fuel economy thanks to its high power density, significantly increased life expectancy, and substantially reduced CO2 emissions. After a decade of technological innovation and development, Scania's new engine platform is finally complete.
"This is the most cost-effective engine we've ever manufactured." It also produces higher torque and power. The standard Scania engine lasts up to 50% longer. "This is a true game changer in power generation," says Joel Granath, Scania's Senior Vice President and Head of Power Solutions. Fuel consumption is lowered when valve control is improved, internal friction is reduced, and turbocharger efficiency is raised. The 13-liter engine equals a 7% reduction in fuel consumption compared to the current model - while maintaining the same performance. This equates to a savings of four liters of fuel per operating hour at full load.
