Scania R580 – the collective page of the 580 hp articulated tractor of the R-series, V8 up to 16.4 litres, 426 to 427 kW, gross weight from 19 to 41 tonnes, axle formulas from 4x2 to 8x4
The Scania R580 belongs to the type logic valid since 2004, in which the number in the name directly denotes the engine power in hp – 580 hp corresponds to the roughly 427 kW recorded in the register. The axle-formula codes such as A6X2NB or CA6X4HHZ denote the number of axles and drive, LA and LB the chassis version for articulated tractor or flatbed, and HHZ and MSA suspension and equipment variants for heavy haulage and construction site work.

The register lists here 17 versions with 426 to 427 kW from eight-cylinders of 15,600 to 16,400 cm³, unladen weights from 7,815 to 32,184 kg, gross weights from 19,000 to 41,000 kg, lengths from 5,780 to 12,000 mm and widths from 2,550 to 2,600 mm.
With 580 hp, the R580 belongs to the top class of articulated tractors for heavy and special transport as well as Scandinavian combinations with high gross weight, a segment in which Scania traditionally competes for the lead with Volvo and Mercedes-Benz.
On a used example in this power segment, the V8's mileage and the service history of the turbocharger and exhaust aftertreatment matter, the condition of the axles and the trailer coupling on special-transport versions, rust on frame extensions, and on the 8x4 chassis the condition of the front axles and steering under high axle load.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
