The Scania 730 hp V8 is an awesome truck, in many ways represents the beginning of a new era, a new rule in the kingdom of high-output engines. With inexhaustible power and torque on tap, right when you need it the most, it’s bound to put you in the lead, competition behind – and a smile on your face. The V8 is based on Scania’s modular engine platform, introduced in 2007 on inline engines. It features a completely new design, yet it shares fundamental architecture and many components with its siblings in the Scania engine dynasty.
The low-maintenance, low-rev philosophy, paired with the easy-to-service modular design and the sheer robustness of every detail, make the Scania V8 truck range a perfect choice for anyone with the ambition to spend more hours on the road and less time in the workshop.
In addition, the worldwide Scania service network is always there for you to ensure maximum uptime.
A great many Scania customers have found that a Scania V8 offers impressive fuel economy. Depending on load, road and driving style, it may even be the best choice – especially when combined with a high-speed rear axle.
Less fuel consumed means lower environmental impact. The new engine meets the Euro 6, EEV and Euro 5 standards, but the technology is prepared to cope with even stricter future standards.
What makes the Scania offer so special is that the V8 advantage is available with a variety of outputs and with Euro 6, EEV, Euro 5, Euro 4 and Euro 3 emission levels. This makes it possible for you to enjoy the unique styling, the special feeling and all the benefits of a Scania V8 with an engine that fits your needs exactly.
The unique exterior styling features of the Scania V8 truck range make a statement of independence and ambition. From the front, the V8s are easily recognised by the Black Brilliant grille with special grill mesh and the chromium Scania sign, model badges and air intakes. If you order your V8 with xenon headlights, they will come with special black surrounds.
From a side view the distinctive shape of the exhaust tailpipe – square with rear-mounted and round with side-mounted batteries – will draw attention, together with the elegant chrome trim on the low-drag sideskirt.
The interior options include fluted black leather seats with an embossed V8 symbol and light grey stitching that nicely match the fluted V8 leather mat on the central floor. The black wooden steering wheel with black leather trim and light grey stitching adds an extra dimension to the driving experience.
The door with V8 symbol, embossed griffin symbol and black leather armrest add to the elegant touch. When stepping in, you can’t avoid noticing the V8 symbol on the door-sill rubbing strip – or the exclusive metal pedals with rubber friction pads.
