DESIGNED FOR ­SUSTAINABLE AND EFFICIENT MOBILITY Based on more than a century of engineering experience, the new generation of Scania buses has been developed to meet the demands of today’s and tomorrow’s cities. Energy efficient and available in a wide range of powertrains, it offers the latest technology in everything from safety systems to reduced emission and noise levels. And through excellent uptime, fuel economy and the possibility for high passenger capacity, the new Scania buses allow sustainable mobility to go hand-in-hand with operating economy. For a better city environment Having the right vehicle for the operation and using it efficiently is the best way to minimise environmental impact. Scania offers hybrid electric buses and engines running on all commercially viable renewable fuels – biodiesel/FAME, HVO and biogas powertrains, in order to meet the requirements of all urban operations. Through high quality vehicles and innovative technical solutions, maintenance, and a range of driver services, we address fuel efficiency from all angles, helping operators to reduce emissions and fuel costs. To create a positive passenger experience, Scania buses have independent front suspension that makes the ride more comfortable and a highly efficient climate system that minimises energy consumption and can handle just about all types of climates. To help prevent accidents and create a safer city environment, Scania buses have built-in state-of-the-art safety systems and features. These help the driver by increasing his or her awareness of other road users, and even help to control the vehicle when required. Energy efficiency lowers operating cost Public transport operators know the importance of keeping operating costs to a minimum, and fuel consumption is one of the main contributors to cost. An energy efficient powertrain can therefore offer significant savings in fuel. Scania develops and offers highly energy efficient powertrains, both traditional and electrified. Compared to previous models, the new generation of Scania buses can potentially save up to 21% in fuel and emissions, without compromising on performance. This is achieved through a number of factors, with the most significant savings coming from improved engine and gearbox efficiency, weight reductions and the addition of a start/stop function. Beyond the powertrain, driving style has a major impact on fuel consumption. The drivability of Scania´s vehicles and our driver assistance systems, as well as our driver services, can potentially contribute to further fuel savings of up to 10%. 2

Ensuring availability through reliable solutions Reducing vehicle downtime and increasing utilisation is essential to making urban operations cost-efficient. Our buses are built on proven technology and components, resulting in chassis and powertrains that are dependable, durable, and robust. That reliability is the key to minimising time in the workshop and maximising utilisation of the vehicle. Our buses are designed and constructed to make sure that sensitive and expensive components are protected in the event of a collision. Limiting damage and avoiding deformation of components such as the steering and aftertreatment system is critical for minimising costs, as well as complex and time-consuming repairs. Additionally, Scania buses are designed to facilitate maintenance and to make it as efficient as possible. Here, Scania offers professional workshop services with excellent parts availability to secure maximum uptime. A first-class driver area A bus operating in urban traffic is constantly exposed to the risk of external damage and the work environment for the driver can be very demanding. A quality driver environment can therefore play a crucial role in reducing the risk of collisions, downtime and sick-leave, while increasing employee retention. The driver area in Scania buses is simply first-class and can even be said to be industry leading. A great turning radius, good visibility, and an overall well-balanced vehicle makes for excellent driveability, while advanced driver assistance systems give the driver good control of the vehicle through improved assisted handling, steering and braking. This increases safety and helps minimise accidents and the associated costs. Due to the demanding work environment, operators also face challenges when it comes to sick leave and employee retention; that’s why we’ve designed the best possible work environment for drivers in terms of ergonomics, reachability, climate control, safety features and an overall quality feel. 7
