Scania has announced it is about to launch a brand-new, battery-electric powered CrewCab truck at the upcoming Interschutz exhibition in Germany as part of its line-up of electric and combustion vehicles.
Scania is claiming it will have its strongest-ever range of power solutions also on show with a comprehensive offering for fire, airport and civil rescue applications.
The company says that it has made huge strides in its vehicles and power solutions since the last Interschutz in 2022, with what it is claiming industry-leading options delivering safety, reliability and greater sustainability in terms of low and zero emission-solutions and better fuel efficiency.
Interschutz is being staged in Hannover from the 1st to 6th June and Scania among other things is claiming a world first reveal among an array of five trucks, which it says will showcase its powerful range of electric and combustion engine trucks.
The headline act at Interschutz for Scania will be its new CrewCab battery-electric truck, which will be the first time it has fitted a battery electric power train in a CrewCab.
Scania will also display a P-cab battery-electric truck, as well as a CP28 normal roof with a new engine for the segment, its new Super 11, recently launched here in Australia, which is claimed to be Scania’s most efficient combustion powertrain platform ever.
along with those trucks there will also be aCP31 low roof, also with the Super 11 engine, and a turntable ladder truck with a Scania chassis and a body by Rosenbauer, with a 4×2 chassis configuration and anine-litre engine.
Scania’s solutions manager Louise Johnson said that the five trucks at Interschutz showcase are part of its extensive range of cabs and modular systems for fire, airport and civil rescue applications.
“These are addressing customers’ needs for safe, reliable and sustainable solutions, and an operating environment that aims to keep the crew and surroundings safe and supported,” said Johansson.
“Our new battery-electric CrewCab and P-cab electric truck meet the segment’s growing demand for low and zero-emission solutions, without sacrificing safety reliability or uptime,” she said.
“The inclusion of the Super 11 powertrain in the CP28 and CP31 trucks brings the possibility for operators to make fuel efficiency savings of up to ten per cent” Johnson claims.
“Together, our line-up shows that Scania in 2026 is a truck manufacturer that continues to set the pace in safe, sustainable and reliable premium operations,” she concluded
Scania will also have a portfolio of power solutions portfolio on its stand, ranging from its tried-and-tested V8 engine through to electric and hybrid power solutions to future-proof airport firefighting customers for their sustainable transport journey.
