What makes the difference? At the heart of all Scania engines is the Scania modular combustion concept.
Of course, there are many factors that influence fuel economy, such as vehicle weight, aerodynamics, rolling resistance, transmission matching, driving expertise and driveability. Operating factors also have an effect; types of road, traffic congestion, and so on. All these are issues that feature prominently in Scania's research and development.
But above all else, good fuel economy starts with achieving the best possible combustion efficiency. The Scania approach to achieving such a condition right across the engine range is unique.
By developing an optimised simple single cylinder unit capable of outstandingly high combustion efficiency, Scania has created a module for all engines
The combustion chambers for all these engines are virtually identical. By concentrating research and development of combustion technology in this way, it has been possible to reach a level of refinement that is beneficial for fuel economy, driveability, reliability, easy maintenance and low emissions right across the engine range.
