SÖDERTÄLJE, Sweden, April 28, 2026
SÖDERTÄLJE, Sweden, April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Scania brings a broad portfolio of solutions for safe and sustainable urban environments for IFAT 2026. A portfolio that supports municipalities in their efforts towards a sustainable future. Scania’s comprehensive offering for municipality operations includes electrification, biofuels, and a wide range of versatile and highly efficient combustion engines.
“This year, Scania brings a full offering to IFAT,” says Jacob Thärnå, Head of Urban, Special and Battery Business. “We present a full offering for all municipal needs including extremely fuel-efficient diesel engines, running also on HVO and biodiesel, gas engines for bio-methane as well as battery electric solutions. This enables customers to choose the energy source that best suits their needs. Basically, it’s one Scania, all the solutions.”
To grasp the vast range, Scania welcomes representatives from cities and municipalities to its stand 711/5 to view the many examples of diverse sustainable solutions.
Scania’s offer for urban applications is comprehensive, designed to address the typical challenges that truck drivers and operators in cities face. “Gas trucks and battery electric vehicles are what many customers are looking for, especially when it comes to refuse collection.”
Scania invests heavily in the development of battery-electric vehicles, another pillar that is vital for sustainable daily operations in our cities. However, lack of knowledge and experience may sometimes slow down the transformation. “We guide our customers on their transformation journeys. Whether their solution is electric or based on renewable fuels, we support them in the best possible way in a partnership,” says Thärnå.
A choice for those concerned about fuel economy is the Super 11-litre engine, built on Scania’s most advanced powertrain platform. Additionally, this engine is compatible with HVO and biodiesel as viable alternative fuels. Advanced combustion technology reduces fuel consumption while maintaining peak performance. A refined balance of power and efficiency maximises uptime and long-term profitability.
Alongside sustainability, safety has always been a priority for Scania. Its L-series cabs, specifically designed with urban operations in mind, have achieved the highest possible rating in the European consumer testing organisation Euro NCAP’s Safer Trucks programme. This also applies to Scania’s P-series for distribution and utility. The driver environments are ideal for municipality applications where excellent direct vision from the cab is an absolute necessity. Both L- and P-series earned the City Safe award.
Thanks to Scania’s modular approach, the ability to tailor solutions for demanding applications is almost unlimited. “We constantly lower CO2 emissions that emanate from our vehicles by improving their energy efficiency and reducing their carbon dependency,” Thärnå concludes.
