Scania showed during the Bauma exhibition this big 10×4 R500. The thruck has two 9-ton front axles. two 16-ton driven axles and a 13 ton hydraulic steered tag axle. That makes a total GVW of 63 tons! An interesting detail is that Scania uses te corners on the cab of the Streamline version, without the big air-intakes on the corners. Streamlining in mining?
Share me:
actually it is 66t (10+10+16+16+14)
Sorry, but the specification sheet says 9 ton front axles..
