Took the R460 for a spin recently. The interior is practical-great headroom and storage. The driveline updates are noticeable, making the ride smoother. About the fuel efficiency claim? It looks on track based on preliminary data. While comfortable, the cab sound differs slightly from what I'm used to, not a deal-breaker. Electric spoiler adjustment is a thoughtful feature.

I've recently had the opportunity to test drive the Scania R460, and I must say it left an impression. The driving position is quite ergonomic, allowing reasonable visibility which is crucial for long hauls. As for performance, the engine's responsiveness stood out, but I felt the cabin noise could be slightly improved when cruising at higher speeds. Overall, it met expectations.

Looked this truck over and the tank layout is the first thing you notice if you walk round it. Four small CNG tanks tucked behind the skirts and two bigger ones at the cab rear. All installed by Scania, mounted low on the cab rear wall. That keeps the profile neat but it means no easy way to add another tank later - Scania aren’t planning extra range. If you do long runs, plan refuelling stops. The extended wheelbase is visible and helps with stability. Engine jump to 460hp is welcome, and using bits of the Super diesel driveline should help fuel use - they claim about 5% better economy. I like that Smart Dash keeps physical buttons for essentials, touchscreen for the rest. Mixed feelings: nice engineering, but range logistics matter with CNG and the dash still needs work.

Drove the Scania R460 the other day, and here are my thoughts. The redesigned engine paired with the Super diesel driveline gives a noticeable efficiency boost. However, I expected slightly more profound braking effects from the retarder system. The quietness during operation is exceptional though. Ergonomics within the cab improve over previous models, making long hauls more comfortable.

I've driven the Scania R460 XT recently, and here’s my take. The Smart Dash is intuitive and offers useful functionalities, like monitoring axle weights. Driving such a heavy load (62 tons), the vehicle mercifully doesn't feel cumbersome. The improved working environment really makes long drives manageable. However, the overall experience felt almost too automated, taking away some of the skills involved-some might find that beneficial, while others might not. Fuel efficiency seemed decent for the payload.

I've had the chance to operate the Scania R460 recently. The high cab design really gives a commanding view of the road, advantageous during long drives. The adaptive cruise control assists well, though adjusting to its feedback took a session or two. The internal cabin quality, while excellent, did get fairly warm without the parking cooler running.

Picked up a job last week with a new Scania R460 Super and took it for a few days. Cab storage is everywhere, so I didn’t have to pile my bags on the passenger seat for once. Drives kinda like the Scania I’m used to, just with a bit nicer shifting - the gearbox is new and you hardly notice it, but there’s still that weird overdrive moment where you feel it kick in. Not sure I care much about the extra AdBlue stuff, just means more fluid to top off, but I guess it does its job.
The adjustable roof spoiler is electric now, which is actually decent because messing with it by hand always sucked, let’s be real. Didn’t have any problems with comfort or the driving position - just easy to get on the road and go. Overall it’s solid, nothing super wild but no big complaints so far, which is about all I can ask for some days.

I've been testing out the Scania R460 for a while now. Honestly, its convenience features stand out. The automatic systems make maneuvers like reversing much simpler. Sleeping in it is pretty comfortable due to its well-thought-out interior design. However, while the gearbox is smooth, I think it takes a moment to adapt.

I had the chance to take the Scania R460 CNG for a spin recently. The vehicle features innovative tank placements, which don't disrupt the overall design. Driving felt smooth and surprisingly quiet; it didn't even change tone when on inclines. The new Smart Dash interface is a mixed bag. It’s intuitive most of the time, but the speed display glitch was a bit distracting. Overall, an intriguing take on alternative fuel operations.

Recently checked out the Scania R460. It features a spacious cabin and an effective air-filtration system. However, I did find the touchscreen interface slightly less intuitive than expected, taking a bit of time to figure out. Engine responsiveness on uphills met my expectations. Fuel economy statistics appeared commendable.
