Scania's upgrade option for London's Euro 3

Aug 11 | 2011

Scania is offering a way to comply with the capital's forthcoming Low Emissions Zone (LEZ) Phase 4 regulations with a team of specially trained technicians at each of its London area branches.

Scania (Great Britain) Limited is offering operators of all Euro 3 commercial vehicles a way to comply with the capital's forthcoming Low Emissions Zone (LEZ) Phase 4 regulations.

The solution, which is also available to purchasers of used trucks from Scania, has been developed with Eminox and involves upgrading trucks with a diesel particulate filtration system to meet the new standard. 

Scania now has a team of specially trained technicians at each of its London area branches providing a one-stop supply and fit service at an all-inclusive price.  The company's 24-hour service in the area means fitment can be carried out overnight to maximise operator convenience and minimise downtime.  Once fitted, vehicles are eligible for a Reduced Pollution Certificate entitling operators up to a £500 annual saving on road fund licence.

"We recognise that a proportion of operators will not wish to replace or renew their vehicles when LEZ Phase 4 comes into effect on 3 January, 2012 and have therefore developed this cost-effective alternative," said Mark Grant, Aftersales Director for Scania (Great Britain) Limited.  "As with all other services from Scania, the quality of the work is assured and fully guaranteed.  With orders already approaching the 250 mark, the early indications are that the upgrade we are offering, which is suitable for all makes of vehicle, will prove extremely popular indeed."
