with operators. They distrust its ability to handle properly onsite, believing it lacks the human touch needed for working on ondulating terrain,
Perhaps It Is not by coincidence that Scania has been relatively slow in offering two pedals for the tipper market, while others have gone headlong into offering automated to the tipper market.
Either way, that is history now as CM drove the first two-pedal Scania tipper for this event. The argument for automation in any sector is about bringing up the standards of the less fuel-friendly drivers, as well as saving on clutch components, and with tippers it is no different.
Within a few miles we found the automated Scan In tipper more than capable of competing with other auto options (see the MAN muckaway showdown between auto and manual), as well as an alternative to its own manual transmission.
Gear changes are sweet and prompt without veering to the conservative, and implementing driver intervention for hill climbs allows the driver to get the best from the 1,840Nm torque on offer.
There is a choice of five wheelbases, between 5,100mm and 5,900mm, four cabs including two sleeper options. The CPI 6 cab, 280mm longer and 33kg heavier than the CP14, is a wise investment as it allows proper stowage of bags, jackets and PPE items without recourse to the footwell of the passenger seat. We definitely recommend the CP16 over the shorter CP14 alternative.
Perhaps the real question is which engine you plump for: we drove the 360 (which is a true rating of 356hp) but there is also a 400 version (394hp). At 32 tonnes, the 356hp is usually enough, but when it came to grunt and performance, it was slower around the route and slower up the hill climb.
