trucks for both local and long haul transport services that meet PostNord’s
requirements for quality and for high performance when it comes to fuel
consumption and environmental impact,” says Peter Eriksson, Senior Key Account
Manager at Scania International Fleet Sales.

and regional distribution, featuring a 9-litre 230 hp engine and the automated
