Scania CV India has launched the new U-BODY tipper designed to increase the productivity in the country's mining sector.

The Swedish company and a leading manufacturer of commercial vehicles and engines has designed the tipper to suit Indian conditions which brings down the Total Operating Economy.

The launch of the new CV for coal, iron ore and other mining activities is part of Scania India's commitment to building innovative and sustainable solutions.

The body design and superior wear resistant steel increases the payload carrying capacity by up to 5 per cent while reducing the fuel consumption by almost 5 per cent due to low self-weight of the tipper body.

Hanna Johansson, Director, Business Support, Scania Commercial Vehicles India, said, “Besides being a manufacturer of heavy trucks and buses, Scania is increasingly developing new ways of delivering customer value based on a full service offering that delivers life cycle profitability.”

“Our solutions approach will add value to customers and bring down total cost of ownership,” she told BusinessLine.

Raghavan Srinivasa, Director, Sales (Trucks) at Scania Commercial Vehicles India, said, “Scania leverages innovative thinking, develops partnerships and works extensively within the logistics flow to capture efficiencies and secure customer profitability.”

The Swedish company, which is celebrating 126 years of global innovation, is looking at the next phase of growth in India.

Scania serves mining and construction segments since 2007 through its partnership with Larsen & Toubro (L&T). Scania has two manufacturing facilities in India for trucks and buses with a production capacity of 2,500 trucks and 1,000 buses.

Scania tippers come with an option of choosing Fleet Management Services that enables the customer to remain in control of the fleet’s performance by providing information such as fuel consumption, tipper idling time, driving behaviour and tipper’s position. When leveraged in conjunction with our Driver Coaching Programme, the FMS ensures maximum productivity and profitability for the customer.
