S-Class renaming

SCANIA is renaming their top of the range trucks, the S-series. Instead of the letter S followed by the actual horsepower, the new trade name will be the horsepower followed by an S, like 450S or 730S. The reversed naming order applies only to the sleeper cabs with a flat floor. Behind the change lies an agreement with Daimler AG, parent company of Mercedes-Benz who, with their long standing S-class passenger car history, had an issue with the S-series trade name.
