Re: Scania To Setup their Plant in Karnataka
That's what they are used for right? They seem to test everything like the Mercedes.
Wow i can't imagine That mercs and Scania will be playing in a year in our roads!
But at the same time, i feel sad what would be the position of AL, Tata and the AMW.

L&T to stop Scania parts import from Belgium
November 8, 2012: Engineering and construction major Larsen and Toubro (L&T) is likely to stop importing automotive components directly from Swedish commercial vehicle giant Scania as the latter has set up its full-fledged Central Parts Centre (CPC) in India.
L &T is selling Scania vehicles, which are being imported as Completely Build Units (CBUs), designed for the mining and construction industry in India since 2007. To service the vehicles in the country, L&T has been directly importing parts from Scania’s central warehouse in Belgium.
Talking to Autocar Professional on the sidelines of Scania’s on-road trucks launch event in Bangalore on November 7, Suresh Ekambaram, director – aftersales, Scania Commercial Vehicles India, said: “The company’s CPC established near Bangalore is fully operational since October 23 and it will supply parts to L &T in India. L&T will stop importing parts from Belgium in a couple of weeks.”
He said the company will directly import parts from its parent warehouse in Belgium and stock parts at its CPC for the vehicles sold through L&T, and also the newly launched on-road heavy duty trucks which will be directly sold by Scania in India through its dealership network.
L&T stocks the imported components at its warehouse in Nagpur to distribute them across the country to service Scania vehicles. So far Scania has sold around 900 trucks through L&T in India.
Scania’s central warehouse in Belgium was inaugurated in 1993 and since 2007 has served as the parts distribution hub for the company’s 1,000 or so European dealerships and to the regional warehouses that supply Scania dealerships in the rest of the world.

Scania Launches P410 in India
Salient features of the P410 truck:
The new 410hp engine is optimized for low engine revs and thereby improved fuel efficiency.
The sturdy steel bumper protrudes 130 mm to protect the cab from minor bumps, an additional 80 mm compared to the previous protruding bumper.
Integrated in the bumper is a strong tow pin with a capacity of 35 tonnes, allowing the vehicle to be towed out of trouble without the need to unload in most situations.
A wide, slip-proof service step on top of the bumper for ease of access for the driver.

Re: Scania To Setup their Plant in Karnataka
I drive Scania, Volvo, Merc Actros, DAF, Iveco, Renault, MAN etc. atleast 2-3 times a week & performance of Volvo is best. I do this in Euro Truck Simulator 2![[lol]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Laugh.gif "Laugh [lol]")
which was released this October.

Re: Scania To Setup their Plant in Karnataka
Will it come in double axle version too, like Volvo B9R or Merc multi-axle ?
BTW, Merc bus built by Sutlej doesn't give premium look, the front & rear is so plain.![[sleep]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Sleep.gif "Sleep [sleep]")
Volvo looks the best to me, especially B9R.

Re: Scania To Setup their Plant in Karnataka
Currently they are busy with marketing the single-axle product, they might soon bring it if market demands, i think they might have it ready.
That Mercedes doesn't look good in any angle and near my office a Garuda owned Mercedes double-axle stands with ugly purple and green vinyls on the body, it's nothing but a rectangle! ouch ALs fare better in this regard.

Re: Scania To Setup their Plant in Karnataka
The production line is based on vehicle build on trolleys and not on conveyors (automatic), seems SCANIA is not expecting high volumes in near future.
Its just about 10units per day!!
