Scania 45 R BEV

NAMING: Scania's BEV designations encode continuous power in tens of kW plus the cab letter - 40 R/40 S = 400 kW (540 hp), 45 R/45 S = 450 kW (610 hp). The R and S variants are the same truck with different cabs, so this record covers both; a separate 40-series record is filed as scania-40-r-bev. Scania markets no separate 'model'; it is one modular BEV platform with cab (L/P/G/R/S/CrewCab), axle (4x2, 6x2, 6x2*4, 6x4, 8x4*4), axle distance 3250-6350 mm and battery (240/320/400/480/560 kWh usable) all configurable. 'Super' is Scania's COMBUSTION driveline designation and does not apply to BEVs - there is no 'Super BEV'. BATTERY CONFLICT: Scania publishes both 'up to 600 km at 728 kWh installed, 83 % SoC window, 29 t GTW' (product page) and a 560 kWh usable top option. The pack ladder is internally consistent at ~104 kWh installed / 80 kWh usable per pack (3 packs 312/240, 4 packs 416/320, 5 packs 520/400, 6 packs 624/480, 7 packs 728/560), so 728 kWh installed and 560 kWh usable are treated as the same seventh-pack configuration here - but the '83 % SoC window' phrasing would imply ~604 kWh usable, which Scania nowhere offers. Flagged for an editor. CELL SUPPLY: cells were originally Northvolt (packs assembled in Sodertalje). After Northvolt's insolvency Scania switched to NMC packs from sister brand MAN, assembled in Nuremberg, rated 89 kWh gross / 80 kWh net per pack - on that basis seven packs are 623 kWh gross, not 728 kWh. Both figures appear in current sources. THE SEVENTH PACK sits under the cab and was opened for order on 27 May 2026, together with MCS. EARLIER RANGE FIGURES: at the June 2022 launch Scania quoted 410 kW continuous and up to 350 km for a 4x2 tractor with six batteries; the 2023 'next level BEV' release quoted 400/450 kW and up to 390 km. Current figures supersede these. Torque is not published by Scania for the C3-6 machine; a Spanish trade outlet quoted 2,800 Nm but this is unverified, so the field is left null.
