Scania has officially unveiled the Super 11 engine worldwide, which it says is its lightest, most efficient engine yet.
The new engine will be available at three performance steps, 350 hp (1800 Nm), 390 hp (2,000 Nm) and 430 hp (2,200 Nm). All of these ratings comply with the latest Euro 6 emissions standards.

Scania say it offers up to seven percent improved fuel efficiency compared with its current 9-litre engine, and is 85 kg lighter than the Super 13 engine. They believe this will allow operators to increase their payloads in weight-critical operations without compromising on power, fuel efficiency or reliability.
“This engine opens new possibilities for energy-efficient and cost-effective transport,” says Scania product manager, truck sales and marketing Ayyoob Zarmehri.
“It’s lighter, leaner and more flexible, yet it still carries the strength and reliability for which Scania is known. It’s a smart choice for operators who need to balance performance, payload and sustainability in their daily work.”
The Super 11 engine shares 85 per cent of its components with the Super 13, giving Scania the flexibility to use previously tried and tested parts in the new model.
Testing has discovered that maintenance intervals are up to 30 per cent longer than Scania’s 9-litre engines when using LDF-5 engine oil, which helps operators increase uptime and reduce overall service costs.
“The Super 11 engine represents the next generation of intelligent transport,” Ayyoob says.
“It combines the best of Scania’s engineering with the efficiency and adaptability that today’s operators demand. Whether in the city or out on longer routes, this engine is built to perform – mile after mile.”
The Super 11 is compatible with both hydrotreated vegetable oil and FAME biodiesel, which can help operators to hit their sustainability targets.
Scania says the new engine is suited for a number of different transport applications, including:
- Tipper and bulk transport
- Fuel and volume goods transport
- Refuse collection and temperature-controlled transport
- General cargo
- Hooklift and Flatbed with crane
- Recovery and fire engines
