“The global truck demand remains stable, driven by sustained fleet utilisation and replacement needs,” Scania said in its results statement.
“The rebound in Latin America, driven mainly by the strong development in Brazil’s agricultural and mining sectors, continues and more than offset the somewhat more normalised market demand in Europe.”
Efforts to create a more resilient vehicle order to delivery flow resulted in increased volume, shorter lead times and improved delivery precision. Increased volume and improved capacity utilisation positively impacted profitability.
