Safety and Technology

Scania Opticruise is an automated gearchanging system that benefits drivers and operators by improving driving comfort and eliminating the need to watch revs and physically change gears.

It also enables the driver to devote more attention to handling the vehicle and to monitoring the road and traffic conditions, promoting greater safety.

Scania’s new Opticruise is now available in either a fully automated version with a unique automatic clutch, or with a classic clutch pedal, according to your own preference. Our vision was to create a  system that thinks and acts like the most skilful and experienced driver. To make it easier than ever to master difficult driving situations.

Inspired by this challenge, Scania engineers set out to optimise all aspects of performance and driving experience. The result is a new gearchanging intelligence that improves uphill driveability, fuel economy and driver comfort – as well as setting a new industry standard for precision manoeuvring.
