SG: Scania Singapore Unveils Scania Streamline at 10th Anniversary Celebrations

Since the 1970s, Scania has been an active partner in Singapore’s revolution of its transportation system. Today, Singapore Bus Service Transit (SBST) alone has over 1,100 Scania buses and coaches that help form the backbone of Singapore’s above ground public transport system. Its role in Singapore continues to expand in breadth and depth. In 2003, Scania Singapore Pte Ltd was established as a wholly owned subsidiary here. Scania Singapore Pte Ltd celebrated its 10th anniversary at the MAJ Aviation Hangar. The event was graced by the presence of the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Sweden, His Excellency Sven Håkan Oskar Jevrell. A key highlight of the event was the unveiling of the new Scania Streamline. The long- haulage truck range boasts aerodynamically improved bodywork that help reduce fuel consumption with savings up to 5%. New services are also integrated to enhance the safety and comfort of the drivers and operators, and further assist them in their daily work.
