Scania trucks 3.5–12 t (Class N2) – the collective page of medium-heavy Scania trucks from the classic L range to the modern P range, 88 to 309 kW, 4 to 8 cylinders, 3,810 to 11,620 kg unladen weight

This page gathers Scania vehicles of EU vehicle Class N2 – trucks with a gross weight between 3.5 and 12 tonnes, determined from registration data. In this weight class, Scania's line-up consists chiefly of older, smaller models of the L range (such as the L50, L3642, LB111) from the days of Scania-Vabis, which was formed in 1911 from the merger of the wagon maker Vabis with the car maker Scania and was renamed Scania in 1969, plus lighter chassis of the modern P range, which Scania has run since the PRT range logic (P, G, R, T) introduced in 1995 as the lowest-cab variant for distribution traffic. The letter-number combinations of the older L and LB models denote historically grown chassis and engine variants whose exact key can no longer be reliably reconstructed from the type designations alone.

The register lists here 79 versions with engine outputs from 88 to 309 kW (recorded for 7 models), displacements from 5,190 to 14,200 cm³ across four to eight cylinders, unladen weights from 3,810 to 11,620 kg, gross weights from 5,150 to 12,000 kg, lengths from 5,060 to 10,450 mm and widths from 2,200 to 2,580 mm.

Vehicles of this weight class mainly serve urban and regional distribution traffic, as fire-service and municipal chassis, and, among the older L models, as historic commercial vehicles in the classic-vehicle scene.

On the classic L and LB models, frame condition and rust as well as parts availability through specialists count, on the P ranges mileage, the condition of clutch and gearbox, the braking system and, on younger model years, the exhaust aftertreatment; parts run through the Scania dealer network.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
