Scania is offering free activation and a ten year subscription to its OnBoard Monitor telematics package to the operators of Scania trucks built from 2011 onwards.

Existing customer subscriptions will be automatically extended to ten years and purchasers of used Scania trucks which have already had their OnBoard Monitor package activated can transfer the remainder of the ten year subscription to their account.

Matthew Watson, General Manager of Scania Optimise Services said, "Our complimentary Monitor package provides access to entry-level performance, including mpg, driving styles and carbon dioxide emissions. This can be upgraded to our comprehensive Control package, which provides information such as live vehicle positioning and individual driver performance.  This in turn opens the door to Scania Optimise, our leading-edge driver development and coaching service which has been designed to provide significant and sustained efficiency gains and cost savings.”

OnBoard activation also allows Scania workshops to remotely access vehicle fault codes, speeding up the diagnostics process and minimising vehicle downtime.
