Scania Engines

I have some figures which may help you

I run Scania’s and go down the A34 quite regularly from Birmingham
R580 9.5mpg
R520 9.75mpg
R450 10.5mpg
These are averages I got back gross at 30-40t

Although I love the V8’s and I don’t regret getting them. The R450 is a cracking truck all round and the eco roll is brilliant! I would have a look at the new 500 engine as it gives that little bit more all round and no compromising on the fuel. The scania will easily out power your current Merc cause I also have a Merc and it’s crap on power! The R450 I have is one of the best trucks I’ve ever had

I’m going to have a demo soon so It’ll be nice to see how it compares to my current fleet. I think my dealer has a S500 demo so when I get my hands on it I’ll let you know what that returns
