ALBA W&H Smart City has purchased 15 battery-powered Scania 25L low-entry trucks after winning a new contract for public waste collection in Singapore’s Woodlands-Yishun district. 

The German parent of several truck and bus manufacturers released its results for the first quarter of 2022, recording a considerable revenue growth of 30% from EUR6.5bn to EUR8.5bn. 

The Swedish commercial vehicle manufacturer will appeal the judgement handed down by the General Court of the EU, that Scania did in fact violate ‘antitrust’ rules between 1997-2011, the period during which major European truck manufacturers reportedly colluded in fixing prices.

Scania has announced its aim to reduce emissions in its supply chain - for batteries, steel, aluminium, and iron in particular - by up to 90% by 2030.

The corporate venture capital fund of Scania has made an investment in logistics software company Parcelly Ltd for an undisclosed sum.

The Swedish subsidiary of the Traton Group announced sales of SEK146m in 2021 and a 26% increase in order intake over the year before.

The order, a mix of waste collection trucks, box-body trucks and a single hooklift truck, will be delivered to municipal waste firm ARC through to the first half of 2023.

The Swedish manufacturer plans to invest SEK975m in the test track, which is waiting for approval by the local authority.

Falkenklev Logistik is building a charging hub in Malmö which will be able to charge 22 vehicles at a time, making it the largest of its kind in Sweden.

Rickberg has been promoted from his current position at Scania as Vice President of Finance and Business Control for Sales and Marketing.

The new Interlink will offer fuel savings of up to 8% along with a raft of enhancements to visibility and driveability.

More than 100 local authorities are taking legal action against Daimler, DAF, Volvo, MAN, Iveco, and Scania, who were found to have colluded in price fixing over fourteen years in 2016.
