THE R-SERIES
The R-series is for single and multi-trailer
applications where performance and
productivity are critical to getting the job
done.
Designed for the lowest cost-per-
kilometre, the R-series is equipped with
innovations that improve fuel consumption
and component durability and serviceability.
It features the latest technological
advancements in braking, air systems,
aerodynamics and ergonomics as well as an
entirely new cab interior.
Innovative aerodynamics and smarter
control of engine auxiliaries have improved
fuel economy. A new air system includes
the option of an electronically-controlled
compressor that avoids charging when the
engine is pulling. Instead, charging takes place
when the vehicle is rolling or going downhill.
Other product highlights include new
frontal styling, a cab interior featuring a much
smaller engine tunnel and new generation
electronic disc brakes.
The exhaust brake and Scania Retarder
have been integrated into the brake system,
and the further refi nement of Scania
Opticruise means the driver rarely need
intervene to control gear changing.
With EBS and disc brakes standard on all
air-suspended trucks, the R-series brings new
levels of safety and reliability to the task.
The new electrical system features CAN-
bus-based electrical system, easy trouble-
shooting of all electronic control units, and
bodywork electrics prepared outside the cab.
The R-series cabs have passed Scania’s
unique 35 km/h crash test and are impact-tested
according to Swedish cab safety standards.
So given all this, it’s little wonder the new
R-series is the 2005 International Truck of the
Year.
Performance and productivity.
THE R-SERIES
The best driver environment money can buy.
The R-series’ new cab brings driver comfort to new levels.
A wide range of adjustments to the seat and steering
column lets drivers fi nd exactly the right position for a
comfortable, relaxed posture.
A new curved dashboard features new controls and
instrumentation, and the steering wheel can be optioned with
buttons for cruise control and sound system.
The new cab interior features new seats, an almost fl at
fl oor, an abundance of storage compartments and lockers, a
bed 15cm wider than the 4-series and options like automatic
climate control and a folding gear lever.
Controls and switches on the dashboard are located within
a sweep of the forearm – there’s no need to stretch or take the
eyes off the road. Scania Opticruise and Scania Retarder, for
example, are activated by a combined lever on the steering
column.
Dashboard displays normally show only the most
necessary information in order to keep the driver’s attention
focused, and a warning will activate if the key is removed
without setting the park brake.
THE R-SERIES
Performance and fuel economy.12-litreThe 12-litre’s main applications are local and intrastate
single trailer, but it also excels in heavy distribution and
construction applications.
The two ADR80/00 (Euro 3) versions produce 420hp
and 2100Nm and 470hp and 2200Nm. The exhaust brake
produces 230kW at 2300rpm.
Both engines features Scania HPI, a high-pressure
fuel injection system designed for low fuel consumption.
Turbocompounding boosts power on the high-output 470hp
engine and reduces emissions on the new 420hp ADR80/01
(Euro 4) engine.
THE R-SERIES
16-litre V8The new 500hp 2400 Nm V8 closes the power and torque
gap between the 470hp 12-litre turbocompound engine and
the high-output 580hp V8.
The output increase is 20hp over the previous 480hp
engine, combined with a 100Nm rise in torque. The 500hp
is ideal for single or multi-trailer applications in line haul,
logging, or heavy haulage applications.
The 580hp V8 boasts a massive 2700Nm and is the
ultimate in Scania’s current engine range. The external
dimensions of the V8 mean that it can be combined
with the new rest cab offered on the R-series to create a
uniquely compact installation ideal for some construction
applications.
