Scania truck product and component developments

Overview

The heavy-duty vehicle sector in Brazil has seen recent developments regarding Scania truck components and model expansions.

In September 2026, Fras-le introduced the RC/963 clutch lining, a component specifically designed for Scania Series 5 trucks produced between 2020 and 2026. This asbestos- and heavy-metal-free lining is engineered for high thermal resistance and durability to handle high torque levels in heavy-duty transport.

By October 2026, Scania announced further expansions to its product offerings for the Fenatran 2026 launch at the São Paulo Expo. This includes the addition of an 11-liter engine to the Super line, which utilizes a thermal management system to eliminate the need for exhaust gas recirculation. The new 11-liter powertrain will offer 390 cv and 430 cv power options, catering to niches such as e-commerce, light construction, and refrigerated food transport. These models feature the Opticruise G25 14-speed automated gearbox, variable valve timing (VVT), and a compression release brake. To increase vehicle availability, the design positions fuel and oil filters in a more accessible, cooler area of the engine block.

Scania also introduced the P 280 XT, a specialized urban waste collection truck capable of running on natural gas or biomethane, featuring an auxiliary axle designed to increase payload capacity.
