Scania G-series (I (2007+)) 490 13.0 (EU6) 490hp (360kW) 2550Nm — commercial diesel engine of the commercial segment of the TRATON Group (Volkswagen Truck & Bus) group (Швеция, 1891). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 490 to 565 hp (+75 hp, +15%) and torque from 2550 to 2950 Nm (+400 Nm). Diesel engines built in 2007 — the era of classic Common Rail without strong encryption.
Scania holds the largest share of the premium European truck segment. Scania is part of the TRATON Group (Volkswagen Truck & Bus). The Scania V8 is the iconic engine of the flagship tractor units. On older truck diesels, Stage 1 goes in over OBD with no complications. Truck diesels carry an extended set of maps for commercial load, with the focus on torque. DPF/SCR with AdBlue is standard on modern Euro-6 truck engines.
The truck chip tuning community is an industry of its own, focused on long-haul routes. The professional logistics segment tunes for fuel consumption and pulling characteristics. Top MAN units sit at the power ceiling of the European truck segment.
