(PRESS RELEASE) SÖDERTÄLJE, 28-Apr-2026 — /EuropaWire/ — Scania is showcasing a wide-ranging portfolio of solutions aimed at enabling safer and more sustainable urban operations at IFAT 2026. The company’s offering is designed to support municipalities in their transition toward low-emission and efficient transport systems.

At the event, Scania is highlighting a comprehensive mix of powertrain technologies, including battery-electric vehicles, gas-powered trucks running on biomethane, and highly efficient combustion engines compatible with renewable fuels such as HVO and biodiesel. This multi-energy approach allows cities and operators to select solutions tailored to their specific operational and environmental requirements.

The company’s urban-focused portfolio addresses common challenges faced in municipal operations, particularly in areas such as refuse collection and city maintenance. Battery-electric trucks and gas-powered vehicles are gaining traction among customers, especially for applications requiring low emissions and reduced noise levels in densely populated areas.

Scania is also emphasizing its ongoing investments in battery-electric vehicle development, positioning electrification as a key component of future urban mobility. At the same time, the company is supporting customers throughout their transition by offering guidance and tailored solutions, whether based on electric power or renewable fuels.

Among the technologies on display is Scania’s Super 11-litre engine, built on its latest powertrain platform. Designed for high efficiency and performance, the engine supports alternative fuels while reducing overall fuel consumption, helping operators improve uptime and long-term cost efficiency.

Safety remains a central focus of Scania’s urban offering. Its L-series and P-series cabs, developed specifically for city environments, have achieved top ratings in the Safer Trucks programme by the Euro NCAP. These vehicles provide enhanced driver visibility and meet the demands of urban operations where awareness of surroundings is critical. Both series have received the City Safe award.

Scania’s modular vehicle design enables a high degree of customization, allowing operators to adapt trucks for a wide range of municipal applications. This flexibility supports efforts to reduce carbon emissions through improved energy efficiency and lower dependence on fossil fuels.

At its stand, Scania is displaying several vehicles tailored for urban use, including a biogas-powered refuse collection truck and multiple battery-electric models configured for applications such as road sweeping, skip loading, and crane operations. These examples demonstrate the company’s ability to deliver application-specific solutions that meet the evolving needs of cities.
