So owner-operators and other truckers sometimes get curious about how things are going on the other continents, so lets take a look at Scania trucks over in Europe for a white. This one’s a Scania cabover R620 v8 Longline STH.
It started to get attention a couple of years ago at the Truckstar festival, it seems. This truck is referred to as “Black Amber” by its owner, Patrick Vandenbulcke (that’s the English way, but they also spell it Patrick van den Bulcke-Borde), whose name is emblazoned on the side of the cabover cab.
Scania cabover specifications for daycab version of R620 (only 100 units were built of this model, with various sleeper sizes):
Length: 5940 mm
Width: 2490 mm
Height: 3935 mm
Engine: DC16-21 16,400 cc V8
Power: 730 horsepower and 3500 Nm of torque, which gives off at 1000 rev / min. Gear: 14 speed (12+ Creeping 2
Does anyone know whether the company, STH, is from Belgium or France? UPDATE: It seems like its France. The upholstery is done by Specialinterior Urk.
