SCANIA has revealed the next step on its electrification journey with new battery electric trucks and a solutions-focused sales approach. Both are designed to encourage customers to make the switch and electrify their regional operations.
The new trucks come with an improved driveline, batteries and charging capability, and are available in R and S sleeper cabs and as a 4×2 tractor or as 6×2*4 rigid.
Scania will also support customers by being their single point of contact, to guarantee the approach and implementation of any solution suits their business and operations.
Christian Levin, CEO of Scania, said: “This introduction represents a major milestone for us and for our partners.
“We are now increasing our range and offering new opportunities to cater for a wider selection of customers and the whole transport ecosystem. These trucks are part of the solution that the transport industry is asking for.”
These new battery electric trucks are based on classic Scania principles of modularity, sustainability and a total operating economy. They have the potential to match or exceed what can be expected from conventional combustion engine trucks.
Customers will be supported with operational factors and services too. These include charging, finance, insurance and maintenance.
Scania is teaming up with global partners and acting as the single point of contact for customers, to offer complete charging solutions that secure a seamless and future-proofed electric experience.
Scania’s new fully electric trucks are available for order now, with production commencing in Q4 2023.
