Scania Avolavakuorma-auto (BA) – Finnish registration class for flatbed trucks: register of four- to eight-cylinder models, 1.1 to 16.4 litres, 96 to 537 kW, 12 to 46 tonnes gross vehicle weight
Avolavakuorma-auto (BA) is not a Scania range but a vehicle class from the Finnish Traficom register for trucks with an open flatbed. This page gathers the Scania trucks recorded in that class, from light chassis to heavy construction and long-haul vehicles; the register entries distinguish the models chiefly by the engine's displacement, which the designation appends directly to the class name in cubic centimetres. Scania's flatbed trucks in this span run from the medium P and G ranges to the heavy R and S ranges and are mostly fitted with a crane, hooklift or open loading platform for construction, forestry and municipal work.

The register lists here 25 versions with 96 to 537 kW from four- to eight-cylinder engines of 1,102 to 16,353 cm³ displacement, unladen weights from 5,140 to 28,190 kg, gross vehicle weights from 12,000 to 46,000 kg, lengths from 6,850 to 13,200 mm and widths from 2,400 to 2,790 mm.
Flatbed trucks, alongside tractor units, form the second pillar of Scania's heavy programme in Scandinavia; in Finland, where crane and hooklift bodies are common in forestry and construction, Scania is, alongside Volvo, among the leading brands of this class.
Buying a used flatbed truck, the condition of the crane and hydraulic system, rust on the loading platform and frame, the function of the retarder and brakes, and on the bigger models the wear of clutch and gearbox all count; spare parts run through the Scania dealer network.
