Scanias new R-series unveiled

Posted: 17/09/09

After four years of exhaustive research, development and testing, Scania designers and engineers were able to sit back today and watch as their new creation, the all new R-series, was unveiled to an anticipating gallery of international media.

 

Developed with the intention of reaffirming Scania's position as market leaders in the categories of economy, efficiency and driver comfort, the new R-series has also been designed with the looming Euro 6 emission regulations soon to come into effect in Europe.

Features of the new R-series can be explored on this campaign website and users are encouraged to engage with the website, ask the designers questions, view gallery images and contact your local branch or dealer network.

Key distinguishable features of the new R-series include:

  • A tougher, more distinctive exterior with improved aerodynamic characteristics
  • New cab interior fittings that feature top-flight ergonomics and allow greater potential for customisation
  • The next generation of the path-breaking Scania Opticruise automated gear changing system
  • The premiere of the Scania Driver Support system.
