Australian Car Mechanic - Issue 80

We’d like to come clean… The “Scania Ute” is, unfortunately, not a real product—yet! This concept was part of an April Fool’s Day joke. While we know the idea of a heavy-duty Scania truck combined with a ute bed and powered by our iconic V8 engine might sound like a dream come true, it was all in good fun. We apologise if this caused any confusion or got your hopes (or engines) running a little too fast.  Thanks for being such great sports, and who knows? Maybe one day…

Australia is home to the world’s longest straight stretch of road .
