At the IAA fair in Hanover, Scania will be featuring a plug-in hybrid electric truck (PHEV) based on the new truck generation. The PHEV and its sibling hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) truck can use Scania Zone to facilitate seamless compliance with emissions and speed regulations in certain zones.
The new hybrid trucks are powered by Scania’s DC09, an inline five-cylinder engine that can run on HVO (hydro treated vegetable oil) or diesel, working in parallel with an electric machine generating 130 kW (177 hp) of power and 1,050 Nm. The lithium-ion rechargeable battery’s energy window is set to 7.4 kWh to secure a long battery life. The trucks can be driven in fully electric mode without any support from the combustion engine, thanks to electric auxiliaries for steering and brake air supply.
