According to the manufacturer, the Super 11 delivers outstanding performance and is among the most fuel-efficient engines in its class. It uses up to 7% less fuel compared to Scania’s current 9-litre engine and is 85 kg lighter than the 13-litre Super, enabling operators to increase payloads in weight-sensitive operations without sacrificing power or reliability.
The new engine is available in three power ratings — 350, 390 and 430 hp — and meets Euro 4, 5 and 6 emissions standards. It also shares 85% of its components with Scania’s proven 13-litre Super engine, ensuring both reliability and ease of servicing.
Designed with durability and cost-efficiency in mind, the Super 11 supports extended maintenance intervals — up to 30% longer than those of the 9-litre engine — when used with Scania’s LDF-5 engine oil. This contributes to reduced downtime and lower overall service costs.
Advanced technology for better performance
Built on Scania’s powertrain platform, the Super 11 incorporates several innovations aimed at improving both efficiency and the driver experience. These include:
- Cam Phaser – Scania’s intelligent valve timing system for real-time thermal management and optimised combustion
- Turbo dosing – the company’s patented AdBlue dosing system, enabling high-efficiency operation and cleaner emissions
- Variable Valve Brake (VVB) – delivering strong engine braking and smooth gear changes
- Compression Release Brake – offering enhanced braking performance with two power levels: 230 kW (standard) and 344 kW (high)
- Balance shafts and new engine software – reducing vibration for a smoother, more comfortable ride
Alternative fuel capability and broad application range
All variants of the new engine are fully compatible with HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil), while selected versions can also run on FAME biodiesel — a renewable fuel produced via transesterification of vegetable oils with methanol. This allows operators to lower their carbon footprint without requiring additional infrastructure investment.
Compact, lightweight and powerful, the Super 11 is designed for a wide range of transport operations, including:
- Tipper and bulk transport
- Fuel and volume goods haulage
- Refuse collection and refrigerated transport
- General cargo
- Hooklift and flatbed vehicles with cranes
- Recovery vehicles and fire engines
Scania describes the Super 11 as a solution that brings “a new level of performance and flexibility to the 11-litre segment” — ideally positioned between the company’s 9-litre and 13-litre engine platforms. It will be available for purchase from June 2025.
