Together, Scania’s P-series and the new high-torque 13-litre EGR engines open new potential to specify compact, powerful trucks that are highly competitive in terms of weight. EGR technology combines excellent fuel economy with the convenience of not requiring additives, leaving space on the chassis for extra fuel or other equipment. The broad P-series cab range enables space to be optimised for a multitude of applications.

Scania has now developed the installation of the new 13-litre Euro 5 EGR engines in the P-series. Torque outputs of up to 2100 Nm are available without any restrictions, providing exceptional driveability for this class.
