Scania’s 12-litre engine is ideal for applications that require solid power and high reliability. The engine responds alertly to the throttle, with
a huge surge of torque available from low revs. The power curve is broad and fl at, which has a very positive effect on engine and driving prop-
erties since maximum power is available within a wide rev range.
The 12-litre engine has a production run of more than 30,000 units every year, for installation in trucks, buses and in industrial and marine applications. It is thoroughly tried and tested, and highly appreciated among the people who own and operate it.

Low fuel consumption and low emissions.
There is nothing particularly difficult in designing a powerful engine; the challenge lies in combining high power with low fuel consumption and low emissions. We have solved this equation with a combination of optimised combustion chambers, unit injectors and a sophisticated Powerful, economical and clean engine management system. The result is optimum fuel economy, and exhaust emissions that of course meet Stage IIIA and Tier 3.
