Renault Maxity Fuel Cell on test

The French national mailservice ‘La Poste’ and Renault Trucks are testing the Renault Maxity truck with a fuel cell added to the electric driveline.

Scoop Scania P-series 8×4

Scania Scoop, Scania 2016,

And here is even more Scania news! This is what we would call the new P- series cab, but in construction this could be a G? Probably? It is an 8×4 tipper truck and the best thing about these pictures from www.terrein.nu is that it shows the mirrors without camouflage! All together there is a…Continue Reading

Scania, even more wintertesting!

Scania, even more wintertesting!

Iepieleaks  has received more Scania wintertest pictures through www.autoliefhebber.com. The pictures show a 4×2 tractor unit wit what we would now call a Topline cab. Interesting is the LED bar above the windscreen. All Scania trucks that were spotted have one and this could be the next step in roof lights. They do give a…Continue Reading

Is this the new Iveco Stralis?

Is this the new Iveco Stralis?

An anonymous Iepieleaks spy sent us this picture and we wonder, is this the real new Stralis or just a creative photoshop-version? Or is it an upcoming facelift? It does look good, and this design is completely in line with the latest Daily model. Iveco is coming with a new model but the information that…Continue Reading

MAN without console!

MAN without console!

One of the things in the very spacious MAN cabs is the voluminous console next to the seat. The console that holds some switches, the handbrake and the switch for the automatic transmission eats a lot of floorspace. Now I just found this photo of all the functions of the console in a box on…Continue Reading

Dakar 2015: Liebherr powered Kamaz wins! ?

Dakar 2015: Liebherr powered Kamaz wins! ?

The 2015 Dakar was again dominated by the Russian Kamaz team. Funny is that these trucks are ‘Liebherr powered’ and that is also what is written on the side of the truck. For the regulations that is not possible, because the components on a rallytruck must be from production trucks. Now Liebherr does not produce…Continue Reading
