Since the beginning of the year we have been testing a new vehicle with a capacity of 450 km horsepower. The drive unit proved to be very economical. The fact that the driver is using a cruise control of Active Prediction had a big effect. The device supported the driver to fuel savings through the use of cartographic data and GPS. The cruise control uses engine, retarder and service brake to adjust the speed according to cartographic data and GPS signals.
Vehicle data:
Max. power at 1900 rpm/min 450 KM (331 kW)
Max. torque at 1000-1300 rpm/min: 2350 Nm
The injection system: Common rail
Emissions exhaust level: Euro 6
Emission control technique : SCR without EGR
In the near future we will get another vehicle with the power 730KM of new bridges technology, adjusted for larger loads tonnage. New bridges using vehicle are 6 x 2, in set allows to get GVW 80T, it’s at least 10 t more, than we were getting in our fleet. In our opinion this solution can be revolutionary in heavy transport. Looking forward the offer to be provide by Scania with technical data of GVW for four-axle vehicle.
