Meeting your driver's expectations
Taking care of your drivers is of utmost importance, and Scania Touring gives them a great driving experi ence. That means benefits that flow on to your passengers – as well as your bottom line. Your drivers can help you drive down operating costs and CO2 emissions. That's why Scania has developed a number of services that focus on making driving more comfortable.
It begins with their training, which will help to increase their engage ment as well as the uptime and service life of your fleet. At the same time, you can decrease accident rates, fuel consumption, unscheduled services, and total cost of ownership in the long run. To further increase the value of the Driver Training, you can add Scania Driver Coaching to keep skills up to date.
Furthermore, when drivers under stand the impact of how they drive, it makes them better drivers. The best way to do this is an on-board system that gives the driver real-time feedback on performance and fuel economy. Each driver has their own fuel con sumption data. This lets them set targets and compete with each other or against themselves. Scania Fleet Management System connected to your offices will help monitor vehicle location, perfor mance, and fuel consumption. You can also receive reports if something is wrong, so you can schedule a service break rather than being taken by sur prise. It lets you fine-tune your operation and maximise uptime.
FUEL EFFICIENCY
Fuel efficiency is essential, and for operators focused on the low total cost of ownership, this coach is destined to be your profit source for years to come. So, Scania Touring Coach can operate on HVO, biodiesel, and other alterna tive forms of diesel to increase your fuel efficiency for long-distance driving.
Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil – HVO – is a modern way to produce highquality bio-based diesel fuels without compromising fuel logistics, engines, exhaust after-treatment devices, or exhaust emissions.
HVO can be made from different sources – such as waste oil, rapeseed oil, palm oil, and animal fat. Using these sources of energy has a signifi cant impact on the total greenhouse gas savings. Compared to standard diesel, an optimal CO2-reduction can reach up to 90% reduction in CO2-emissions.
Biodiesel can be made from various sources like rapeseed, plants, and waste cooking oil. Biodiesel also has the advantage of being a liquid, available in large quantities. The supply of sustain able biodiesel is primarily being used for blending in diesel, or a pure 100 % form. Compared to standard diesel, an optimal CO2 -reduction is estimated to be up to 66% in CO2-emissions.
Scania have contributed to more than a century of bus evolution by having the right people, products, and solutions.
This is because Scania believes these buses, such as Scania Touring, will be a win for everyone involved.
