New 11-litre engine from Scania to be unveiled
21 May 2025

Scania will unveil a new, lightweight 11-litre engine in June as the manufacturer promises improved performance, efficiency and greater operational flexibility.
Positioned between the established 9-litre and 13-litre engine platforms, the Super 11 offers up to 7% improved fuel efficiency compared with Scania’s current 9-litre engine and is 85kg lighter than the Super 13 engine.
The new engine will allow transport operators to increase their payloads in weight-critical operations without compromising on power, fuel efficiency or reliability.
Available in three power outputs 鈥 350hp (1,800Nm), 390hp (2,000Nm) and 430hp (2,200Nm) 鈥 the Super 11 complies with聽Euro VI emission standards. The Super 11 also shares 85% components with the Super 13 engine.
Maintenance intervals are up to 30% longer than Scania鈥檚 9-litre engines when using LDF-5 engine oil, which helps operators increase uptime and reduce overall service costs.
The Super 11 features various key improvements that are the result of years of testing of technical innovations. The new engine is equipped with Scania鈥檚 cam phaser technology for variable valve timing, enabling real-time engine thermal management and improved combustion performance. This is combined with new engine software and balance shafts for reduced vibration and a robust engine brake, which offers up to 344 kW through Scania鈥檚 Variable Valve Brake (VVB) system.
The Super 11 is designed for a wide range of transport operations, including聽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.聽聽聽聽聽聽
