Scania trucks aren't as good as they are due to any secret tricks. Just meticulous focus on quality in parts and engineering. You can't really "copy" that. Or well you can, but you can't make cheap knockoffs of something if the "secret" is just to do something really well.

It seems to have the perfect blend of capitalism, socialism and secularism all working in harmony. It's a brilliant model. Yes you pay higher taxes, but you can see exactly where your money goes. Yet, Sweden has fantastic world leading companies like Volvo, Scania, Spotify, husqvarna etc.

Bruce's Scania has a custom cab that is like 2m longer than the standard cab so it does have a wee bit more space. Not to mention this is basically a custom prototype, if Scania was to gain a foothold in the US it makes sense that US specific models will be closer to what a US truck driver would expect.

I also work as QE in automotive manufacturing in Scandinavia (part supplier), so I want to point out that this is how LEAN focused factories look like. Notice how there is a marking on the floor for ever pallet or other item. Each worker has just the tools needed and no extra clutter. Assembly line has optimized the work load evenly, so that each step moves at the same pace. Automation is also a major factor to why manufacturing like this is competitive in high cost country like Sweden.

And yes, Toyota is the biggest contributor to all of this, although the biggest change in Lean is how to adopt it to the local culture.

@@Closetmonkeh MAN is owned by VAG group and they started buying Scania back in 2008 using a hostile takeover, technically Volkswagen owns scania and the entire TRATON group, the fact that they're in a group doesn't change the ownership and neither who is the CEO of scania or TRATON. Just how Renault trucks is owned by Volvo. Overtime you'll see parts shares between the manufacturers, for example older euro 6 man used to have two turbos and a zf gearbox newer one have one turbo developed by scania and a scania gearbox, same with renault, renault trucks have pretty much the powertrain from a volvo. From my understanding they aim to have much more intercompatibility in the future, that's how the new scania super engines are developed and that is why you see them used in more trucks, currently there are diferences between the d26 and the s13 but not for long. As for the v8, I'm affraid that emission regulations will end that engine, when will that happen is hard to tell

@chrisV8 possible. A good number of us have been spoiled by the large sleeper bunks, although the resurgence of small sleeper design and the coffin sleeper has been on the rise. There are a good handful of companies whose drivers spend maybe a week out on their trucks and home on the weekends though that these style cabins would be more than appreciated. I used to run for a mega carrier that had Peterbilt 579's with the Ultraloft and, me personally, it just seemed a little overkill having so much cab space as a solo driver. I never even used 1/2 the available storage or the top bunk in it that I requested to be put back into a low-top. I feel like here in the US, most purchases for the Scania would be small companies/own-op's would run them for the ease of maneuvering for the weekly out drivers and honestly as assigned unit daycabs. Personally, I know the company I work for would look into them just based on where they send us and frankly trying to get into some places with a International LT or even the VNL 760 can be a task and a half lol. I genuinely hope the US market can adapt the Scania, because it would be a game changer especially for us as drivers.

Being retired RCAF, I got to go around a lot of the world and Europe and England and Scotland especially. I have seen Scania trucks for years and have always loved the look (The first Big Rig I drove was a Cab over Ford). The idea that they make a V8 with more horsepower than most inline 6's that run here in North America and get better fuel mileage is fantastic. Its about time that North America gets brought into the modern times. Love the looks and the attention to detail. Keep showing them how its done Scania

As someone who worked in a Swedish factory producing parts for a couple of vehicle companies I'm not surprised some vehicle companies have really high quality. If we packed their parts wrong or packed them in a pallet not marked with their logo they just sent it back. Not questions. No negotiation. Do it right or don't do it at all. There are a lot of other factories. And if the whole production chain is structured like that there is a high chance for high quality.
