Scania to return to Brisbane Truck Show to showcase refreshed line-up

Scania Australia has revealed it will return to the 2025 Brisbane Truck Show after a short hiatus.

The Swedish brand has been growing its Australian footprint over the past few years and now has a fully refreshed line-up to display to show visitors.

These include the revised V8 range with new gearboxes and transmissions, and the new Scania Super 13-litre engine family, which features double overhead camshafts among a bevy of technology and efficiency upgrades.

“We have seen at least an eight per cent improvement in fuel efficiency compared with our previous generation engines of similar power outputs,” said Benjamin Nye, Scania Director of Truck Sales.

“In many real-world Australian working environments, the Scania Super six-cylinder engines have delivered significantly greater savings, which are providing vastly improved total operating economy for our customers.

“Super customers are also reporting their drivers enthusing over the power, torque, drivability and responsiveness of these Super engines.”

In addition to the internal combustion engine range, Scania will also debut the next generation of fully electric zero tailpipe emission BEV trucks, in the shape of the 40 BEV, offering around 400km of real-world range in either prime mover or rigid configuration.

The 40 BEV can be combined with four available Scania cab series; the low entry L-series, city delivery focussed P-series, general duties G-series and heavy-duty R-series.

“With the Gen 3 BEV prime mover we have a highly capable last mile-distribution-intrastate solution for operators who want or need a zero-carbon footprint vehicle in use.

“This product is proving itself a winner in Europe, and we believe it will be an excellent solution for Australian customers as well,” Nye added.

The Brisbane Truck Show will run from May 15-18 at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.
